In 2016 we debuted, The Future Of_, an event series inviting future-shapers to illuminate us with their thoughts on the near and far future.
Bypassing the ‘middleman’, The Future Of_ is a unique opportunity to directly access the creatives influencing the edges of tomorrow.
The event was attended by 75 influencers, editors, marketing directors, brand managers, university professors, curators and cultural producers.
