Having attended the excellent Guardian Activate last year, I was hugely honoured to be invited to present at Activate 2014 *and* also DJ afterwards for the stellar lineup of speakers and guests from the worlds of mobile, tech, the sharing economy and especially the world of FinTech innovation.

Here is the presentation, delivered in a whisker over 5 minutes. The “It’s The Year Of Mobile” slide was delivered flashing with a QI klaxon sound, highlighting the fact that every year is the year of mobile. The “Family Fortunes” slides are a reference to making conferences more game-show style interactive e.g. “You said the future of retail was DogeCoin… our survey said [family fortunes wrong answer buzzer sound].
Here is the playlist from my short DJ set after the event, I rolled out a few gangsta rap classics for two of the speakers, and the rest was a mix of tunes about money and some nice house vibes.
