About CogX

CogX Platform provides a way to cut through the social media noise. Whilst powerful, social media platforms lack curation & personalisation making it overwhelming to navigate. CogX is building a new social media platform for professionals that’s curated so you can stay current without the noise of social media. Engage with the latest news and expert views, discover, connect and collaborate, all in the palm of your hand.

CogX Festival - The world's largest festival of inspiration, impact & change across Transformational Technologies. In the past 6 years the Festival has had over 1,000 speakers across each event, over 20,000 in-person attendees and over 850,000 online viewers of its 2021 edition. For 2022 coming out of the Pandemic we showcased 300+ speakers to 6,000 attendees across 20 inspiring topics from leadership to ethics to health and our planet and all addressing the question "How do we get the next 10 years right?".

The event combines the magic of an in-person experience and exclusive side events with a broadcast scale reach of 5m catch up online audience. We have exciting plans for 2023 where we expect to scale up to over 1,000 speakers, 15 stages and an in-person audience of over 90,000 over 3 days.
