The OODAcon conference series brings together the hackers, thinkers, strategists, disruptors, leaders, technologists, and creators with one foot in the future to discuss the most pressing issues of the day and provide insight into the ways technology is evolving. What are we about? Hacking the future, always.

 

Announcing the OODAcon 2024 Conference Theme:

Convergence

We mean convergence in its truest sense. Convergence is about the merging and integrating of different capabilities, ideas, technologies and business models to create new things. We are gathering not to admire convergence, but to spot those areas where we can accelerate it and glean maximum impact for business and missions.

 

How will OODAcon help us master the outcomes of convergence? By gathering our community of leaders to capture inputs from diverse fields to reach a higher understanding and drive actionable insights. Expect to engage in enriching discussions, peer to peer networking, and keynote sessions that not only challenge the status quo but also offer a unique perspective on integrating these advancements into our daily lives and industries.

 

We have been building momentum to the conference already by producing OODA Loop content on the major trends and diving deep into business relevance of Artificial Intelligence, Bio Tech, Quantum Tech, Space, Cryptocurrencies and Material Sciences. At OODAcon we will explore the synergies of these and other rapidly moving tech topics to produce a transformative experience. The conference will feature an impressive lineup of speakers—pioneers who are steering the direction of their respective fields towards a unified vision of the future. OODAcon 2024 is your arena to witness, participate, and contribute to the dialogue that drives innovation forward. Join us in hacking the future, together, as we navigate the complexities of convergence and pave the way for a technologically integrated tomorrow.
