Common Questions
What is the 2026 theme?
Boundless: No limits. No friction. Just ideas worth spreading. Speakers will explore what happens when we look beyond the walls, friction, and borders that keep human potential small.
Why only 100 attendees?
Our license and our philosophy align on this: small is powerful. A room of 100 engaged people produces better conversations, more meaningful connections, and a better experience for both attendees and speakers than a room of 1,000 passive observers.
How are speakers selected?
The curation team is shaping a first speaker slate around original, evidence-informed ideas that connect to the Boundless theme with local roots and broader relevance. Selected speakers will be coached from concept through delivery.
Will the talks be available online?
Yes. Every talk will be professionally recorded, edited, and uploaded to YouTube after the event - free to watch, share, and spread. That's the mission.
Are there student or group discounts?
We offer a limited number of discounted tickets for students with valid ID. Contact us at [email protected] to inquire about student pricing and group rates.
Can I get a refund?
Tickets are non-refundable but fully transferable. Please contact our team at least 48 hours before the event to update attendee details.
