Today, organisations all around the world are facing the challenges and opportunities of digital transformation, so what better place to take the discussions than Manchester, home of the industrial revolution; the first example of widespread business change.
Our XPO venue, the Manchester Science and Industry Museum, was founded in 1969 on the site of the oldest surviving passenger railway station, in the heart of the world’s first industrial city. Today, it is a leading institution for science and technology and home to the 11-day Manchester Science Festival. It is a globally important heritage site comprising five listed buildings, two of them listed Grade 1.
