The Roaring 20s are coming back
& this is YOUR window of opportunity

The renaissance period emerged from the bubonic plague. The roaring 20s were a product of the Spanish Flu. Consistently, throughout history, periods of crisis lead to periods of chaos and opportunity because people start making up for lost time, taking risks, trying new things. For you, this means that you could turn 2023 and beyond into the greatest career opportunity of your lifetime. In this year's Future Festival series, we will study 2023 trends and lessons from history to help you emerge through chaos.

Megatrends, Chaos & The Roaring 20s

What does the post-pandemic world look like? Let’s chart it out, discover new opportunities and innovate forward.

Collision at the Innovation Conference - You'll join the world's top innovators to experience the future before it happens

Kick-off with Jeremy Gutsche, the world's #1 most-watched innovation keynote speaker

Innovation Keynote speaker Jeremy Gutsche

Get inspired about CHAOS & OPPORTUNITY with Jeremy Gutsche, one of the world’s top innovation keynote speakers & chaos experts, and the #1 most-watched innovation speaker on YouTube, with over 20,000,000 views. In this NEW keynote, he'll dive into the history of how post-crisis opportunity works.

Our CEO, Jeremy Gutsche, is a New York Times bestselling author who has become an advisor to over 800 brands, billionaires, CEOs & NASA, particularly focused on innovating through times of change. As one of the world's top innovation keynote speakers, he'll kick-off the innovation event with unparalleled energy. Then he'll return for a lunchtime keynote about How to Create The Future.

"Gutsche is one of the most sought-after keynote speakers on the planet, well-regarded as the top trend-spotter in the world... the most energizing, inspiring & applicable... & I’ve heard Bill Clinton... Bill Gates... & Tony Robbins." - The Sun Newspaper

Explore the 18 most-important megatrends shaping the world with top speaker Armida Ascano

Our Chief Content Officer, one of the world's most popular speakers on trends, Armida Ascano, will help you uncover the forces impacting your business in a post-COVID world.

Leveraging our big data from 225,000,000 people, we’ve built the most researched, most data-driven system for identifying opportunities. This unparalleled research led us to 6 Patterns of Opportunity and the 18 most important Megatrends shaping our future.

Using this framework, you’ll learn how to apply these Megatrends and patterns to any industry, and then more specifically how the resulting Megatrends conference content can be leveraged when you return home. For continuity, the rest of the innovation conference builds upon these frameworks, deep-diving into the top Megatrends throughout the rest of the day.

Learn how to make innovation and change actually happen

Get inspired about CHAOS & OPPORTUNITY with Jeremy Gutsche, one of the world’s top innovation keynote speakers & chaos experts, in a NEW keynote, diving into the history of how post-crisis opportunity works.

What great opportunity is within your grasp? Our latest book, Jeremy Gutsche's award-winning Create The future, is all about how to make innovation and change happen, particularly during times of chaos. The book, which is our textbook on innovation, features tactics for disruptive thinking, innovation and change.

We've reached a point in time when everyone wants innovation, but most people don't know how to make it happen. In our era of rapid change, disruption, and possibility, there are so many great opportunities within your grasp. However, smart, successful people consistently miss out. We have 7 traps that keep us stuck to the path we are already on.

Experience the future in YOUR category with an immersive Trend Report & networking session

Futurist Keynotes - Learn next year's trends before they happen

Sean Watson

9:30 The New Roaring 20s

THE MORNING SHOW / PRE-KEYNOTES - The Renaissance Period emerged from the bubonic plague. The Roaring 20s emerged from the Spanish Flu. And The Roaring 20s are coming back. Consistently, throughout history, the greatest periods of opportunity have emerged from chaos and crisis. Learn how to find your opportunity and warm up for the day with Armida and Jeremy discussing their favorite trends for 2023. The preview for this was our #1 webinar.

Armida Ascano

10:00 Micro-Generations, Post-COVID

Every micro generation has experienced change through the pandemic. The results of this change are an era of resurgence and redefinition. In order to better understand these new opportunities, we must look back on past periods of instability and reinvention. This session will answer the question of how generations rechart through the roaring 20s.

Taryn Boyd

11:00 New Wave Social Media

Social media is not just communication anymore, people use it to feel connections and to entertain. Explore New Wave Social Media as we deep dive into patterns of human connection that intersect with the digital world. Brands widen their consumer lens by having a deep understanding of transparent messaging and authenticity on social platforms.

Courtney Scharf

11:30 Experiential Economy 2.0

This era of reinvention will see a move toward a 'more is more' attitude, especially in the worlds of leisure and play. How is fun redefined in the post-pandemic world?

Jeremy Gutsche

12:00 Better & Faster

LUNCH KEYNOTE - If you've seen this keynote before, then this is a refresher or your break for lunch. If you haven't seen it, don't miss out! BETTER & FASTER is Jeremy's New York Times Bestselling book on how to get BETTER at adapting and FASTER and finding new ideas. In particular, this keynote explores the patterns of innovation in times of chaos.

Jaime Neely

1:00 Post-Pandemic Office Culture

Employeecentricity is front and center as we see major shifts in how consumers view and define work-life balance. This past year people have been re-prioritizing their lives, it's not just 'what do I do for work,' but 'why do I work?' Employees are more focused on a sense of purpose as we emerge from the pandemic.

Gil Haddi

1:30 Marketing Tech and Innovation

People today are prioritizing a sense of empowerment and personal peace; what does that mean for their purchasing decisions? What will marketing look like for a target demographic who is less concerned with the things they buy than the way they are impacting the world?

Ady Floyd

2:00 Retail Innovation in 2023

The retail industry has undergone dramatic change over the last year of volatility. Factors such as in-store safety, hyper-convenience, and an urge to support local were key drivers in this regard. Where does that leave the retail industry today, and how do we reinvent from here?

Jonathon Brown

3:00 Innovators in Business

Learn from Trend Hunter's network of innovation leaders about where the future is headed. Featuring lifelong innovators from Fortune 500s across industries, the Innovators Series is a segment dedicated to bringing a diverse set of voices to the table to discuss which Megatrends will be most important in the next few years, and why now?

Mary Van Puymbroeck

3:30 Building a Sustainable Future

Maintaining practices to ensure a sustainable future is top priority to many consumers, with brands playing a pivotal role in the mission to preserve our planet. Explore eco-forward trends in sustainability to plan for a better future.

Jeremy Gutsche

4:00 The Super Future in 2027

What does your future hold? The lines that separate different industries are blurring. You can now compete in any market. It has never been easier to instantly become an entrepreneur, launching new products in almost any type of market. The pace of human progress will dramatically accelerate with machines that think like humans but with near-infinite speed and data.
