Third party events
Join Cambridge Wireless for a one day event focused on indoor navigation, to feature expert-led talks and a rapid-fire series of “bullet presentations” that spotlight innovative solutions and real-world applications. Whether you’re developing, deploying, or simply curious about indoor positioning, this event promises to inform, inspire, and connect.
The future isn’t something we wait for—it’s something we shape. As designers of experiences, we don’t just create spaces. We shape how people move, what they feel, and what they remember. In San Franciscowe’re gathering to practice radical listening, share bold ideas, and reimagine what design can become when rooted in care, equity, and complexity. This is more than a typical conference. It’s a living, participatory space for co-creation—where contradictions are welcomed, friction is embraced, and design becomes a practice of care, relationship, and transformation.
