Greetings !

I'm really excited about the workshops at Future Festival and how I will help you and your team to prototype your innovation plan for next year. Here's the high-level schedule:

Night 1 - Molecular Cocktails at Trend Hunter's Private Bar

Day 1 - 2016 Trend & Innovation Immersion + An Epic Trend-Based Party

Day 2 - Workshops Focused on Your Brand + Custom Trend Safaris

Weekend - a 1,000,000 person epic technology & arts festival

Basically, you'll get to experience 2016 before it happens on day 1, giving you inspiration for the year ahead, and then on the workshop day, I will work with you and your team to prototype your innovation strategy. I will teach you the same workshops I've used to prototype strategy for hundreds of CEOs, billionaires and innovation teams. This will give you a new toolkit of trend-based innovation exercises and workshops that you can bring back to your office, while guiding you through a framework that will result in 5 - 10 actionable ideas.

I'm extremely excited about it.

One catch is that the city gets flooded with 1,000,000 people for the technology and arts festival, so I need to push you to book early to get you and your team into the right hotel.

To ensure your spot, we have created an early-bird discount that lasts until August 15. So please check out the Future Festival video and the 7 reasons you must attend.

Enjoy!
