Deaf Centre Makes Some Noise: Take Courage with Tech!
About this Event
Building on two successful years of participation, the TechNExt Fringe Event 2026 at the Newcastle Deaf Centre – Make Some Noise: Take Courage with Tech will provide a dynamic and inclusive space that champions accessible innovation. Informed by the relaxed, discussion-led format of the 2024 event and the interactive, project-driven programme delivered in 2025, the 2026 fringe event will further strengthen the role of the third sector as a vital bridge between technology, accessibility and real-world communication.
Hosted at the Newcastle Deaf Centre, the event will bring together community to celebrate the inclusive design, emerging technologies and artificial intelligence in support of Deaf and hearing people alike. The programme will highlight NDC’s achievements in ongoing research partnerships, Deaf-led innovation, and youth digital work, alongside opportunities for dialogue, creative engagement and knowledge-sharing.
TechNExt Fringe 2026 will continue to amplify Deaf voices, demonstrating that accessibility is not optional, but central to meaningful and forward-thinking innovation for all.
