NewCo Miami Presentation

MIAMI, FL
March 25-26, 2018
2017 Partnership Kit

The world’s most innovative business festival

Why? NewCo revolutionized traditional conferences by
developing an “inside out” festival model where
participants go directly inside the office spaces of
the most exciting companies.

NewCo festivals have the focus of a business conference, the feel
of a music festival, and the flow of an artist open-studio.

NewCo celebrates global
innovation by connecting people
with the companies that are driving
change.
NewCo companies are high growth,
information first, and reimagining
how, where, and why we work.
