Kadans Sparks Digital Innovation

‘Kadans Sparks…’ is a new type of event where organisations can explore the future of innovative solutions.

First ‘Visionary dreamers’ share their vision of the future. They will trigger your imagination by taking you on a journey to the future about the role of digital innovation in our lives.

Followed by ‘innovators’ pitching their disrupting technologies. Innovators are companies working on ground-breaking innovations, and they will inspire you with their solutions.​

Through collaboration the visions are translated to a future within reach.

On Tuesday November 29, we are organising the first edition of Kadans Sparks… Innovation at the TU/e Campus in Eindhoven. We look forward to welcoming anyone interested within the tech community, wherever you are already on the TU/e Campus or are accommodated on another campus. This is your opportunity to get acquainted with future technologies, meet new partners and acquire new business opportunities.
