Panel member
As part of a panel, we bring in a longer-term perspective on any questions your audience may ask.


Closing Keynotes and After Dinner Talks
Our closing keynotes and after dinner talks present futures content in a more light-hearted vein, rounding off your day with something that is both thought-provoking and entertaining.

Games and micro contributions
We can provide a host of micro-contributions (games and quick activities) to keep the future front of mind during your event.

Building the future into the fabric of your conference
