INFORMATION FOR SPEAKERS
European Trend Day
THE TREND DAY SPIRIT
The European Trend Day is a gathering on digitization and society with a community keen to discuss novel ideas. It takes place in an intimate and non-promotional environment. Participants look forward to insights and experience from your area of expertise. We respectfully ask you not to promote your business during your presentation.
The event typically gathers around 250 European participants, mostly from the German speaking countries. They are mostly decision-makers from marketing, retail, finance, insurance, tourism and other industries, as well as young entrepreneurs, academia, public authorities and Swiss and European quality media.
