Expected to be a highlight of the south west cyber community's calendar, the annual CyberFest is back for 2026, bringing experts, innovators and business leaders together for an inspiring day of all things cyber.
What to expect at CyberFest 2026?
Hosted by cyber communications specialists, Alice Violet from Alice Violet Creative and Felicity Main, CyberFest is a collaboration between Fortem IT and leading Gloucestershire cyber hub, CyNam.
The event brings together some of the most influential individuals who are shaping the cyber and tech scene in the region, from business founders to industry leaders.
Promising 'a day of sharp insight, real conversation and meaningful connection, in a setting that feels nothing like your average industry event', guests can expect to hear from expert speakers and engage in real-world discussions on some of the sector's hottest topics, such as automation, robotics, security, resilience, AI and digital transformation.
CyberFest's keynote will be delivered by BBC journalist and podcaster, Jamie Bartlett, best known for his podcasts The Missing Cryptoqueen and Everything is Fake.
Taking place in a relaxed and unconventional venue, there'll also live entertainment from theatrical performance company Asteria's Playground, cider tasting, prizes, charity giveaways and some surprises thrown in, too!
