We're closing 2023 with a bang. What to expect: an incredible tech wrap-up by Sam and Michiel and the first-ever live recording of Radio Raccoons, with a look into the future.
Keynotes
To end 2023 with a bang, we came up with something special. During our Winter Edition of The Bar, you can enjoy our Tech Wrap-Up by Sam and Michiel as you know it, and a future outlook in a live episode of Radio Raccoons. Past and future, we've got it covered.
The keynotes:
👉🏼 Sam Hendrickx and Michiel Vandendriessche - 2023 Tech Wrap-Up
Over the past year, every edition of The Bar featured Sam and Michiel, giving us a snapshot of the quarterly tech advancements. This edition, they're zooming out to give us the big picture, covering 2023. Because, to say the least, it has been crazy. What happened in the generative AI landscape? What about augmented, virtual, and mixed reality? Maybe Elon Musk will be an entire segment (yes, again - the guy does a lot)? Go into 2024 with a full comprehension of what has happened this year and stay ahead of the pack.
👉🏼 Daphné Vermeiren and Deevid De Meyer - Radio Raccoons live show
A first time for everything, right? At the beginning of this year, we announced a revamped format of Radio Raccoons with Daphné as Deevid's co-host. Almost 20 episodes later, we're planning our first live show. And what better platform than The Bar? In this special, Daphné and Deevid will be looking forward. What will happen in 2024, and beyond? Will AI take over the world? Will chips be implanted in our brains? Time will tell, and we will try to guess. A special moment for Radio Raccoons, and you can be part of it! Maybe, you'll even be our Curious Raccoon of the episode...
