Greetings !

We were thrilled to see Future Festival written up in INC Magazine as one of the top events to inspire your team! We're sold out in NYC and 95% sold out for next month in LA and London, so if you need any tickets, please act soon.

Here's what INC had to say,"Rated by 97 percent of participants as 'the best innovation conference ever,' Trend Hunter's Future Festival is where you sharpen your innovation skills and experience the future. Here, you'll enjoy an experience that consists of immersive performances, personalized innovation assessments, and one-on-one consultations. And if you sign up for the Toronto session, you'll even get the chance to nurture ideas in the same workshop that helped NASA prototype its journey to Mars."

Enjoy!
