The NEXT Conference is a full-day gathering plus a range of side-events for curious minds, digital-savvy decision-makers, marketers, strategists, innovators, thought leaders, creative thinkers and doers from across industries.

Every year we aim to fuel discussions by introducing a thought provoking theme. 2023 we shout:

Let’s get physical.

The digital world is merging with the physical world, creating the next iteration of the Web: also known as the phygital world. Times, when we still distinguished between analog and digital, are long gone. The driving force behind this development turns out to be artificial intelligence.

Our cities, our workplaces, our brains, the way we see ourselves and perceive the world – all is about to change.

At the same time, there is a craving for things to touch and feel. The Corona years and the shift towards remote work and social life in the Metaverse have made real connections and moments of intimacy more important to us.

Together with our international experts we’ll guide discussions on tech trends and shifting customer behaviour and offer a range of experiences that will speak to all senses.

Come together and let’s get physical!
