Dropbox at Inspirefest 2017

Right now, the world feels at its most frenetic. We’re both hyper-connected and siloed. We’re all striving for lives of purpose, but it’s easy to get caught up in it all and settle for doing things on repeat, just to keep up.

We could all do with a dose of inspiration. After all, inspiration leads to creativity, thinking differently, doing your best work and achieving amazing things.

And that’s why we’re thrilled to be sponsoring Inspirefest. Taking place in Dublin from the 6th to the 7th of July, Inspirefest is Europe’s leading international scitech and arts festival, exploring a world where technology and science meets creativity, covering all sorts of innovative trends from infosec to blockchain, AI to robotics, and gaming to professional development.

Inspirefest has inclusion and diversity at its very core, connecting professionals and thought-leaders from all over to encourage, and yes, inspire. Ann O’Dea, Founder of Inspirefest, told us the idea for the festival stemmed from wanting to do things a bit differently: “From day one, we wanted to show that a tech event that put diversity and inclusion at its heart, would actually be far more dynamic and innovative than traditional events. And that’s what we’ve achieved with Inspirefest.”

Having enjoyed our time there so much last year, we’re back at the Bord Gáis Energy Theatre this week.

Adrienne Gormley, Global Head of Customer Experience, will take to the stage again, this time to share her vision for ‘The Creative Workplace of 2020’. Adrienne told us: “From gaming and media, to science, to VR, to HR, Inspirefest unites industries in a celebration of compelling voices and bold ideas. We’re excited to join the chorus.”

We’ll also be presenting Dropbox Paper and inviting attendees to download the app to their smartphone in order capture inspirational quotes, photos, tweets, opinions and more.

Just like Dropbox Paper, Inspirefest celebrates working together to bring big, bright ideas to life. So stay tuned for more updates from the festival and Q & A’s with its incredible line up of speakers.
