The IDEAS 2024 conference is an arena that brings together the most forward thinkers to help reshape the world by defying their field's boundaries. The conference revolves around three parts: conferences, workshops, and social gatherings.

By understanding how people with inspired ideas can synergistically align, we unlock the potential to create a world where innovation flourishes, design transcends boundaries, entrepreneurship thrives, and sustainability becomes the bedrock of collective well-being.

  • Witness the magic of Technology, understanding its environmental effects and its potential, and risks, for social good.
  • Revolutionize Transportation, pioneering smart, green, and integrated solutions for a seamless future.
  • Immerse yourself in the fusion of Art & Technology, exploring artistic opportunities and co-existence in an ever-evolving world.
  • Challenge conventional thinking in Economy, engaging in circular, post-growth, and degrowth debates for a sustainable world.
  • And many more topics…

The overall impact of the conference design is meant to create an open and inclusive environment that promotes innovation and cross-pollination between people and disciplines.
