Foram anunciadas mais de 700 atrações, a programação da conferência, keynote speakers e a agenda. A famosa variedade do festival permanece: Google, Facebook, IDEO, Frog, Meow Wolf, NASA, Universal Music Group, Spotify, The New York Times, Marvel Entertainment, National Geographic entre outros.
Uma novidade para o ano são as sessões especiais sobre blockchain, o que já dá um belo direcionamento do que será “hypado” durante o primeiro trimestre do ano que vem.
