Why should I attend EDC?
Step out of your daily routine and experience another world. We believe that only when we expand our comfort zones do we truly learn and grow. EDC2023 offers an opportunity to meet people you would normally not meet and spend 3 days with; An opportunity to hear stories you might otherwise not hear; And, being away from the noise of your daily life, you are given a rare and precious opportunity to reflect on what you have already learned on your journey.

EDC20223 offers knowledge, inspiration and opportunities. We promise:

  • Multicultural environment: We typically host delegates from 40+ countries, each one carefully selected to ensure that diversity of cultures, thoughts and perspectives are represented at the conference. We believe in sharing information and learning from each other and we believe that the ability to understand different cultures and perspectives is what the true education should be.
