Our award winning innovation experience . And we have a stellar lineup of speakers including Ash Barty and Emily Penn.
We have put in a lot of effort to still provide an 鈥榚xperience鈥� rather than a standard online event or webinar. We鈥檝e held true to delivering an innovation experience that inspires awe and creativity, opening attendees to the latest technologies and possibilities. We鈥檝e put tremendous work into the production quality too, which I hope you鈥檒l notice.
Also acknowledging the large number of online events and attendee fatigue, we鈥檝e tried to make the event easily consumable. E鈥檉fect in 2020 will be a three-episode series with each episode running for around 30 minutes. We鈥檝e also spread the episodes over three weeks to give you time to absorb the content. Each episode has a different theme that explores a current issue that businesses face.
And we couldn鈥檛 do it without our , AWS, Dell Technologies, Deloitte, DXC Technology, IBM and Intel.
We looked for a host that would resonate with the topics and yet convey the content in a different way to which business events are usually delivered. We found that host in Rove McManus, comedian, TV host and entertainer.
