  • Why TechTots? we need to talk more about the big changes that tech is bringing for little people

    Why TechTots? we need to talk more about the big changes that tech is bringing for little people
    Feb 27 2025

    In this episode we'll explain why we think we all need to think more about the big changes that technology is bringing for little people.

    While walking around the historic Brunswick Square Gardens in London Alastair and Rob will introduce themselves and will explain why we wanted to start this podcast (and to build Tandem).

    In short, young lives are too important to leave the (real) tech bros.

    We promise a thought-provoking and jargon free intro into the digital lives of toddlers. Please listen, comment and share.

    In this second Episode, we'll dig into the science of early childhood... and why this period lays the foundations.

    Tori, Head of Marketing at Tandem (and expert on early childhood by virtue of being a mum) is 'in conversation with' Tandem CEO (and Assistant Prof at LSHTM) Dr Rob Hughes.

    They'll talk us through an intro to the science of early childhood development, including what we mean by early childhood, whether there is a 'recipe' for a good early childhood, alongside some tips to help parents navigate these critical early years in a world of rapidly emerging technologies.
