Pleasen note due to circumstances beyond our control, this event has been cancelled. Apologies for any inconvenience caused.
From early days of the canals to the modern world of digital technology, communications has helped shape our world and influenced our lives. This impact is especially evidence at MediaCityUK where an area of Salford has been transformed from a thriving inland port fed from the Manchester Ship Canal into a high technology hub for the media industry. But what traces are left of this evolution? This one day event will examine how communications has changed our world and left its mark from the Industrial Revolution to the present day. Anyone interested in history should find this event interesting.
