It was an event series that hit the market with epic speakers, the hottest venues and packed-out spaces right from the get-go. Now, after a two-year hiatus, EG’s techlive programme is back and better than ever before.
Since launching in 2018, some of the biggest names and investors in tech, real estate and beyond have graced techlive’s stages – including the head of Google Maps, New York City’s chief innovation officer, and Metaprop’s general partner Zak Schwarzman.
