After more than a year of virtual events, TAG Alliances members at "Pop-up" locations around the world joined countless other "Plug-in" virtual attendees for the first TAG Hybrid International Conference.
On October 19, 2021, renowned speaker, Shawn Kanungo delivered a dynamic Keynote session to numerous online attendees and three live simulcasts at Pop-up locations in Ontario, Canada; London, England; and Brussels, Belgium. Shawn is a globally recognized innovation strategist who previously spent 12 years working closely with leaders to better plan for the opportunities associated with disruptive innovation. Kanungo is a practitioner who has worked with hundreds of organizations on their journey to digital transformation and was named in Forbes as the “Best Virtual Keynote Speaker I’ve Ever Seen”. Shawn's Keynote Presentation on "Disruption DNA" provided a radical take on how TAG Alliances members can leverage emerging trends to not only become immune to disruption, but to be disruptive themselves.
Preceding and following the Keynote address, each "Pop-Up" location also coordinated specialized networking activities and topical discussions for attendees such as "Professional Secrecy", "Ransomware: Knowing your Adversary", and "Return to Work Issues in Canada". Pop-up events were generously hosted by:
