Description
TBD IS BACK! Mark your calendars for Feb 27, 2024, at 9:30 a.m. sharp!
TBD 'Fascia' will examine...re/dis/connecting. New ideas, old connections, loyalty to boycotts, young and old, trust and bad actors...everything is more connected, so why are we more disconnected than ever, and how do we reconnect? Now in its sixth year, saying what TBD 'Fascia' will cover is business critical for 2024 alone is an understatement. Strap in and join us for a wild ride that lasts way beyond the conference day.
What will you learn? All the TBD staples: strategy, technology, decision-making, leadership along with biomimetic creativity, AI significant others, new materials, post-identity politics, surveillance capitalism, and the big generational wealth exchange, to name a few. You always know who is speaking, but you don't know specifically what about until the day of the conference. Expect surprises and exactly no ads and long speeches. TBD doesn't do those. TBD is a hand-curated ride you give in to that 'changes you'. Come for the whole ride. Not only do we create a unique environment for you to encode the information, but we also provide you with experiences to lock in what you've learned and get exposed to.
Beyond information, you need a network. TBD gives you both. Join thousands of attendees and explore global economic forces to the inner workings of consumer minds and changing tastes, and then network with like minds and new minds for helpful advice, recommendations and more. The TBD community is international, well-connected, strong and passionate. Whether in your last or first job, TBD will inspire and challenge you to think and act bigger. Expect bold talks that will stay with you thanks to our bespoke fragrance priming courtesy of Haeckals (at physical events).
As always, a hand-curated selection of the finest minds: Tom Standage (The Economist), Simon Anholt ('Good Country Index'), Tracey Follows (Futurist/Identity expert), Gareth Tennant (Decision Advantage/Ex-Royal Marine), Will Scougal (Make My Day/ex-Snap), Esther O’Callaghan (Hundo), Tim Oldman (Leesman Index), Sam Conniff (Uncertainty Experts), Miss Yankey (TBD's resident Slam Poet), Tey Bannerman (VP Design & Associate Partner, McKinsey), Sarah Hyndman (Type Tasting), Hrant Gharibyan (BlueQubit, Quantum expert), Ve Dewey (Design Leadership Researcher), George Lee (Ageing expert), Nick Gray (Author, 'The Two Hour Cocktail Party') Sean Rogg (experimental performance futurist), Michael Bhaskar ('The Coming Wave'), Hannah Marshall (Conceptual Artist), Marcus John Henry Brown (Speakery), Samreen McGregor (CEO of Turmeric, Executive Coach), Deborah Carver ('The Content Technologist'), Yesim Kunter (Play expert), Tomas Chamorro-Premuzic (organizational psychologist), Patrick Fagen (Behavioural Scientist) and more. Expect greatness.
Senior executives, department heads, entrepreneurs, and forward-thinking professionals across a diverse range of companies. Around 40% are F500 companies. All seek a departure from mundane conferences that offer little value. They crave genuine insights from renowned speakers and those they've yet to encounter. TBD aims to provide a transformative experience without the ayahuasca. As one CEO attested, it's an event that 'stays with you'.
TBD 'Fascia' will help you see what's really going on, working, and not, what's worth focusing on, and where the opportunities truly are. You'll also meet a slew of smart people who can help you. Million-pound deals have closed from connections made at TBD.

ACCESSIBILITY
We want to make TBD as accessible as possible for everyone. As such, we have set aside a limited number of spaces that can be offered free of charge on a case-by-case basis. Whilst TBD is a paid-for event with high costs, we know not everyone is in a position right now to pay full price for a ticket, whether you're a student, freelancer, or currently out of work. If you fall into any of these categories, please drop us a line, and we'll see what we can do.
Disruptive Technologies offers a three-step framework that enables readers to choose how their business responds to technological upheaval rather than being led by changes forced upon them. By showing how to understand any new technology (with deep dives into artificial intelligence, blockchain, virtual and augmented reality, graphene and 3D printing), evaluating the challenge it poses, and finally responding to it, readers will come away secure in the knowledge that they have a workable system with which they can navigate ongoing technological disruption. The second edition features new chapters and analysis on the Metaverse and Web 3.0, as well as case studies and discussions of emerging technologies from NFTs to 4D printing. Available now from Amazon, Barnes & Noble, Bookshop.org, Foyles, Google Books, and Walmart.
