One-of-a-kind dual-track experience

Spacious, flexible, and filled with light, the venue brings together the best of design and product communities in one inspiring space.

Each conference has its own dedicated main theatre, tailored to highlight unique themes and ideas. But the magic happens in between—shared networking areas, open greenrooms, and collaborative spaces where ideas cross-pollinate.

The venue's thoughtful layout ensures easy movement between sessions, while vibrant networking areas and collaborative workshops bring creative minds together for unexpected discoveries.
