This year we want to make sure we provide a line-up that is just as strong, that is why we are happy to announce that the first keynote speaker has been confirmed for TIE 2024. We welcome Professor Ahmed and look forward to hearing his opinions on Technology, Innovation, Entrepreneurship, and Education.
