KIKK Connect
Join KIKK one day before everyone else. On October 21, KIKK Connect brings together speakers, artists, partners, professionals and invited guests for a curated day of encounters, conversations and networking before the festival officially begins. A chance to meet the right people, start new conversations and experience the festival from the inside.
For its 15th edition, KIKK Festival is launching KIKK Connect: a full day dedicated to business development in the creative and technology sectors.
A new format designed to go beyond informal networking. Curated matchmaking, networking lunch, business-oriented talks and panels, meetings with international delegations — every moment of the day is designed to create valuable connections.
Every year, KIKK Festival welcomes international delegations from across Europe and beyond. Decision-makers, creatives, investors and entrepreneurs from the creative and technology industries who are not always easy to meet throughout the year.
This year, delegations from 9 countries and regions have already confirmed their attendance at KIKK Connect:
KIKK Connect is your direct access to this network.
