FAQs
CAN I GO TO JUST1 DAY OF THE CONFERENCE?
It’s really important to attend both days of the event. You need to have the Day 1 to learn and then Day 2 to share.
We made it 2 half days to try and make it as flexible as possible for your schedule.
WHY ISN’t there a list of speakers?
We want to have people go by their first name only. If you can look them up before the event, it goes against the goal of creating personal connections first, professional connections next.
WHO REALLY IS ATTENDING THE CONFERENCE THEN?
The event is invite-only. Invites go to emerging tech leaders, senior management of large and small companies and start-ups. All people we have met personally (and we have met quite a lot of people).
There will be people who advise, create, or build innovations, all focused on “what’s next.” The goal is to be industry- and tech-agnostic. But certain industries and functions tend to support emerging tech a bit more often (e.g., art, advertising, academia, healthcare, any title that includes the word “Innovation”).
WHAT DO I SAY IF I CAN’T USE MY COMPANY NAME AND TITLE?
You know how tech people often say “What I say today reflects my own opinions, and not my company’s”? Now take that perspective and apply it to the whole day.
Go by your first name and you can talk about the technologies and industries that interest you. Just not what you personally are doing, until Day 2.
IT SAYS I CAN’T SELL OUR TECH OR SERVICES, BUT ISN’T THAT THE POINT OF A CONFERENCE?
Yes, we know. The connections we are facilitating are focused on creating future (post-conference) financially successful opportunities. In fact, we hope the number of professional connections and successful Sales meetings you make post-event are unprecedented.
WILL THERE BE FOOD?
There will be snacks provided both days. The location has coffee and tea.There are lots of places nearby to grab food for meals.
