About this listen

Fast Forward is a podcast series about the "brains behind the brains" - the curators of innovation conferences around the world that help us think and shape the future. We want to bring them out of the shadow of conference stages to the front and have them share who they are, how they work and how they keep up with the crazy rhythm of innovation. Join AC Coppens' monthly conversation with the world’s top conferences programmers and learn: How do you curate the future? For more information go to: catalysts.agencyTHE CATALYSTS
