This is the day to make connections that will last the week — and well beyond.

This is a full day of hands-on tech workshops, expert-led roundtable discussions, global webinars and going-global panel sessions designed for innovators ready to sharpen capability and expand horizons.

If you are serious about growth, this is the day that equips you with the knowledge, confidence and connections to take the next step.

The day concludes with a sunset investor cruise featuring canapés, creating a relaxed yet powerful setting for reflection, insight and relationship-building.
