Meet the speakers

After the headline debate on the ‘attention crisis’, the discussion continues in a live audience Q&A. Join Roy Baumeister, Anna Lembke, Frank Furedi, and Douglas Rushkoff as they take questions from the audience, unpacking how attention shapes perception and reality, examining the risks of digital environments designed to capture it, and debating whether regulation, cultural reform, or restraint is the appropriate response.
