Tired of boring tech events? So are we. We’re turning the technology panel on its head.

We put 2 technology experts on stage, in the ring 2 feet from each other in front of 5 accomplished “referees” and let them defend their position on a topic in their field.

We do this in front of 500 CEOs, technologists, entrepreneurs and investors.

So there is no pressure.

Then we let the refs and audience (that’s you) vote for a winner. That’s not boring. That’s fun.

…and you might learn something.
