In May 2017, 15,000 entrepreneurs, developers, marketing managers, CEOs and policymakers will gather in Amsterdam for TNW Conference, Europe’s leading tech festival.
Besides meeting potential clients or partners and connecting with other people interested in the future of technology, marketing, and innovation, our attendees – of which the first 1,000 can be found on our attendees page – come to be the first to hear first-class speakers deliver inspiring talks about the newest industry trends and developments; indispensable knowledge to take away and apply to one’s own business.
Even though TNW Conference is several months away, we’ve already secured some amazing names that we’d like to share with you today, including the CMO behind the phenomenally successful Pokémon GO, Github’s Co-Founder and CEO, the creative brains behind Refinery29, Nike’s brand new CTO, and many more – a colorful mix of tech pioneers you won’t want to miss.
