Innova Flanders is the first cross-industry and cross-technology innovation-focused conference in Europe. At Innova, we do not just show you innovations and technologies that are happening right now, but we will show you how to innovate as a company, how to innovate as an organization, and how to collaborate to drive innovation within your organization or company. We will also help you in building out your local ecosystem; collaboration is our main focus point. In 2023, Innova Flanders has transformed into a full-week innovation festival, where we host events for high school students, higher education students, startups, SMEs, and corporates. Some events are also available for free for the entire community. Our main themes focus on Health (Ageing, Longevity, and MedTech), Hardware, Retail, and Hospitality (Events, Tourism, Conferences) Each theme will have its dedicated experience zone for you to explore and its dedicated unique program of speakers! Do you want to mix it up? Why not explore multiple zones and topics during your days at Innova! What about important trends like Metaverse, Data, and Green? No worries, each theme takes these major trends into account as well within the experience zones and speaker sessions! Innova Flanders was first hosted in 2022 in Ghent, Belgium. During our three main events, we welcomed over a thousand guests coming from 19 different countries!
