Dallas INNOVATION CONFERENCE

Our Top Dallas
Innovation Conference

Our Dallas Research Conference starts with a keynote by Trend Hunter CEO Jeremy Gutsche, who will outline the 6 Patterns of Opportunity and the 18 Megatrends that can help you find overlooked ideas and hidden opportunities. This will be followed by a series of talks on the key trends and consumer insights that are shaping the way consumers live, work, play, and shop. Finally, the day will end with an interactive afterparty, where you will be able to relax, network, and connect with like-minded innovators.

“

Inspiring, full day of reviewing how the world is changing around us, enlightening us on how important it is to understand trends and include those in our day-to-day business.”
— SR Manager, K&I Stills Innovation

If you want to plan for a better, faster, and winning future for both you and your business, Future Festival is for you."

Dallas is one of the very few cities can boast having a team in all four of the major sports leagues (NFL, NBA, MLB, and NHL). As a result, Dallas is the perfect place to see how the fan experience is being transformed with new technology, unique merchandise, and immersive activations at venues such as AT&T Stadium and the American Airlines Center. These innovations also carry over beyond the world of sports and into that of retail, dining, and entertainment. Some noteworthy hotspots to explore following the Dallas Research Conference include Ida Claire, which serves up Southern comfort food inside a decked-out airstream trailer, and the High & Tight barbershop, which serves up complex cocktails alongside trims and cuts.
