AppsAnywhere is Heading to UCISA DIG25 – Let’s Talk AI in Higher Ed

We’re excited to be exhibiting at UCISA DIG25, the annual Digital Infrastructure Group conference, where this year’s theme dives into one of the most hotly debated topics in tech:
“AI – Friend or Foe?”

Taking place after last year’s fantastic turnout in Leeds, DIG25 promises another thought-provoking event for those managing and maintaining the digital backbone of higher education.

Exploring AI’s Infrastructure Demands

As universities look to harness the power of AI, it’s clear that its impact goes far beyond software. From massive compute requirements to sustainability concerns, this year’s conference focuses on the technical realities of adopting AI in our sector.

DIG25 will explore:

• The infrastructure needed to support large-scale AI deployment
• How data, storage, compute, and power usage intersect
• The environmental footprint of advanced AI systems
• The risks and responsibilities tied to AI centralization
• Why secure networking and robust cybersecurity are non-negotiable

In short, this is a deep dive into the engine room of AI.

Why Attend?

This year’s agenda brings together expert-led sessions, panel discussions, and real-world case studies that unpack both the potential and the pitfalls of AI in higher ed. It’s a must-attend for anyone shaping or supporting digital infrastructure across the sector.

Topics you can expect to explore include:

• How AI can be implemented responsibly and securely
• Balancing innovation with ethics, sustainability, and data privacy
• The evolving role of infrastructure teams in an AI-powered future
• AI’s long-term implications for education, employment, and equity

Whether you’re managing networks, deploying compute resources, or leading digital transformation, DIG25 is your chance to connect, learn, and help shape the future of campus technology.
