Today, Director GCHQ Jeremy Fleming delivered the 2021 Vincent Briscoe Lecture for the Institute for Security, Science and Technology at Imperial College London 

The speech considered the impact fundamental changes in the tech environment have had on our economy and society, and the way in which the global pandemic has accelerated those trends at home but also enabled our adversaries in new ways.  

It examined the challenges surrounding geopolitical competition in technology, and the need to reform the international approach to cyber and technology for the 21st century.  

From cyber power through to combatting Covid-19, he explored the UK’s unique opportunity to lead the next phase of the global digital revolution.  

The speech is also available to be watched on the Imperial College YouTube page.
