Il réunit les plus grands entrepreneurs et créateurs internationaux à un seul endroit. Cet événement hors du commun en met plein la vue, car il a pour but de lier le monde entrepreneurial à celui de l’innovation et de la création en réinventant le monde financier. Ce weekend rassemble donc autant des dirigeants du milieu artistique que financier. Malgré le montant élevé à débourser pour prendre part à cette activité, cette expérience en vaut définitivement la peine. Cette super rencontre, remplie de conférenciers de renom tel que Kent Nagano et Snoop Dog, aidera votre compagnie à trouver de nouvelles inspirations et à ouvrir ses horizons sur d’audacieux concepts.
