SLACK FRONTIERS CONFERENCE
- USER & VIRTUAL CONFERENCES
- PRODUCT LAUNCHES
With over 12 million active users in over 150 countries, Slack is changing how the world works on a global scale. After producing their inaugural Frontiers conference in 2017, Slack asked us to join forces again. Our challenge? To create an inspiring experience that would bring together and celebrate the unique and varied worlds Slack connects on a daily basis.
