Why Attend

We seek to nurture innovation by creating platforms for open discussion through:

  • 1-2-1 partnering link-ups (powered by partneringLITE software)

  • VIP dinner

The event promises to ignite fresh ideas and partnering opportunities. We believe that the best innovation is driven by interdisciplinary cross-talk.

The conference will also provide an interactive platform for emergent technologies to be showcased in regard to these sectors.
