Espérance

TBD IS HYBRID IN 2022…(HOPE)FULLY

Enough doom scrolling and soul-crushing Zooms. Now more than ever you need a network. TBD ‘Espérance’ (translation: expectation for the future) will not only give you that network but also knowledge and a realistic sense of hope for the years that follow. A lot has changed, a lot will change, attending TBD means you’ll know what are the big things you need to focus on along with the little things you shouldn't take your eye off of. Expect the unseen, expect change, expect hope.

January 2022. 9 am - 6 pm, live in London and online.

TBD IS ABOUT THE RIGHT KNOWLEDGE

TBD is a knowledge event. Some faces you know, most you won’t. Speakers include business leaders, world-renowned Futurists, legendary creatives, big thinkers, big tech, Analysts, bestselling authors and Silicon Valley luminaries and people you wouldn’t expect. Previously we’ve had Kung-Fu Masters, expert voice coaches to MI-5 hostage negotiators. ‘Espérance’ will feature The Economist’s Tom Standage, wordsmith-extraordinaire - Vikki Ross, top Futurist’s - Ian Pearson (BSc DSc), and Tracey Follows. Design guru Yosuke Ushigome (Takram), Babylon’s Erin Lee, Data viz whizz, Alberto Cairo, author Michael Bhaskar and many more are set to inform, challenge and inspire.

Journalists from Techcrunch to the FT are on hand to ask hard questions and keep everyone honest.

TBD DOESN’T ACT LIKE ANY CONFERENCE YOU’VE EVER BEEN TO

TBD is packed with insights and information. In order to help you remember more we do a few things. We make everything short and punchy, ads and hour-long keynotes are banned. We diffuse our bespoke scent (thanks Haeckels) that is engineered to trigger memory receptors too. We offer Nootropics to increase your focus and our Poet In Residence (Miss Yankey) is always set to incite and inspire. The coffee is handpicked and flows all day. Oh, and we have a forest in Madagascar too.
