LIFT is a yearly gathering of talented observers, explorers, and builders who discuss the current challenges and creative solutions presented by emerging technologies. LIFT is three days to face cutting edge business models, bold predictions, radical thinking, and get new ideas to inject into your own part of the planet.

LIFT is more than a conference! Beyond the opportunity to listen to some of today’s most influential minds, you can also talk during the open stage sessions or share and learn with others during a pre-conference workshop. And for the first time in 2007, LIFT+ was added to the concept. It is a living and creative platform intended to develop new ideas through active interaction between the participants.

LIFT has a simple goal: connect people who are passionate about new applications of technology and propel their conversations into the broader world to improve life and work.

The event will is held in Geneva, Switzerland, at the International Conference Center. It is organized by a group of international practitioners.
