ZEG London: Stories That Connect Us
Power hides in plain sight: in algorithms that decide what we see, in oligarchs who shape what we believe, in borders that erase entire peoples. But patterns emerge when we connect the dots between colonial blueprints and Silicon Valley dreams, between stories we're told and realities we live, between resistance movements spanning continents and centuries.
Join us for a full day of aha moments, unexpected connections and mind-expanding stories as we discover what becomes possible when we see the architecture beneath the chaos. In partnership with this immersive experience brings together journalists, artists, activists, and thinkers to explore how power operates across time, space, and systems.

ZEG started as a and is now traveling the world, creating spaces where stories come alive and everyone gets to join the conversation. Powered by award-winning journalism from , ZEG London will explore how power operates across borders and systems. From the colonial legacies that shape today's tech empires to the resistance movements rewriting tomorrow's possibilities, together we’ll trace the threads connecting global power structures to local realities, individual stories to collective movements for change.
