From seasoned keynoters to the talents of tomorrow, Frontiers has always been renowned for our capabilities of scouting what’s next. Understanding how the future will be in two years is key to decide how to spend your next budget. From a 1920 unfinished aquarium in Rome to a rooftop in San Francisco. From an ancient Renaissance palace in Florence to an ultramodern theatre in Milan. From a luxurious ballroom in Dubai to the former HQ of the Eastern Germany national radio in Berlin (and the generator room of an early 1900 electric plant or the masterpiece of archistar Frank Ghery in front of the Brandburg Thor). Our venues have always been a core part of the Frontiers experience. Our conferences are famous for their super energetic openings, superbly orchestrated by our artists Korinami and Joe Ferrari. And also the level of detail curation we put in the food and beverage experience. The level of interactivity and hands-on learnings at our masterclasses. The chance to network with entrepreneurs, managers, researchers and scientists, investors and experienced business men during our renowned mingling sessions. It’s all part of the Frontiers experience. It’s the reason why great things happen at Frontiers.
