Details

Latitude59 is the cosy spring gathering for people serious about startups, investing, and the future of governance.

Startup conferences are about speeches, pitches and wooing investors. The big ones, they're the cruise ships of seafaring. Latitude59 is the lovely yacht without the crowds. Only people who really matter.

What is Latitude59?
Latitude59 is small by design. We like the cosy festival vibe. But there’s more to it. Entrepreneurship and digital technology aren’t limited to startups. They matter in society and governance.

At the heart of our stage programme this year will be the wider themes of the future. Future of tech, education, humanity, ethics, government, living environment etc.
