Focus of the event

The list of the topics will be constantly updating, with the emphasis on:

- psychological support for everyone affected by the crisis
- preventive measures,
- ways to prepare ourselves for any future pandemics,
WHAT IS IT ABOUT?
HOW WILL IT BE DONE?
Virtual Delivery
Working remotely became the New normal now, and we go along with it, letting people reach their goals in a comfortable atmosphere.
The Online Tool allows us to imitate all elements of a regular in-person event. You will be able to chat with roughly 1000 attendees of the event, have audio/video meetings and many more.
The program will include:
- 3 high-end keynotes,
- 30 round-tables with the best experts in the field,
- direct matchmaking
Unconference
Unconference is a type of event where agenda is not strictly regulated by organizers, but is rather co-created by attendees. It is less formal than a regular conference, and the main focus lays on making new and deeper connections in a relaxed atmosphere.
All our guests (including you!) will have something to bring to the table of the New Normal after covid-19 discussion, and the content part will be created during the mutual exchange of information at our professionally guided round-tables.
HOW WILL IT FEEL?
