Our vision
THE OBJECTIVES OF XSPAIN CONFERENCE
4
In recent years we have experienced great changes, which is why we also need a
change in the way we share, expose and spread things, a change in the standard of
modern conference.
In a society where the collaborative economy, the power of the people and the
community, have become a reference for many sectors, and the basis of many
systems, we believe it should also be the basis for the realization of a new type of
conference.
One, more affordable and focused on the needs and concerns of the attendees
themselves and the community members, an eminently practical, open conference and
the city involving collaborative conference.
A conference of horizontal organization to put aside the traditional organization and
lead to an informal meeting to help spread the skills, knowledge and processes among
the attendees. A conference involving also a change in the subject, joining technology,
film, music and entrepreneurship.
For the first time in Europe, a conference for technology, entrepreneurship, music and
film. A conference that is both a link between industries and professionals, plus a
connection of these issues to society.
