Our Cincinnati Innovation Event is a one-day conference that takes all of the essential information from our three-day festival in Toronto and packs it into one accelerated program. The day begins with a keynote speech by Trend Hunter CEO Jeremy Gutsche’s, who will outline the 6 Patterns of Opportunity and 18 Megatrends that are causing major industry changes. This will be followed by a series of informative trend and innovation keynotes that will provide you with the skills needed to find better ideas, faster. You will then have an opportunity to decompress and engage with other innovators during the immersive afterparty experience.
