Future Festival NYC Sparks Conversation

You’ve just returned from Future Festival 2025 -- two days of bold ideas, trend forecasts, and next-gen strategies -- and now you're wondering what to ask your team. The value of an innovation conference doesn’t end at the closing keynote. The real impact begins when you bring those insights back to your team. Here are a few key questions to spark reflection, collaboration, and action:

1. What ideas stood out the most -- and why?

Get your team to pinpoint sessions, case studies, or discussions that made a lasting impression. Was it a new technology, a consumer shift, or a surprising success story?

2. What should we experiment with now?

Turn inspiration into action. Identify one or two low-risk ways to test a new idea within your existing workflow or customer journey.

3. What gaps did the event reveal?

Did the conference highlight areas where your team or strategy is falling behind? Use that as a prompt for growth, not criticism.

4. How can we bring this back to the broader organization?

Encourage knowledge sharing by hosting a mini recap session or sharing a digestible highlight reel internally.

The goal isn’t to copy what you saw -- it’s to evolve what you do.

For those looking to continue the conversation, the Future Festival Toronto World Summit returns September 23–25, offering another chance to explore new ideas and approaches to innovation.
