Fifteen Seconds Festival
Europe’s leading anti-conference is coming to Istanbul
4,000 attendees | Istanbul Lütfi Kırdar ICEC, April 21-22, 2020
No egos, no agendas, no bullshit: Grow your network and learn from the world’s brightest minds in business, innovation, and creativity.

Forward-thinking attendees
Innovative exhibitors
Empowering curious minds since 2014
Hello Istanbul!
Curious minds: To us, they are people who continuously and passionately engage with new technologies, practices, and approaches. They never stop learning and tirelessly face the future head-on.
In 2014, we created Fifteen Seconds Festival as a global platform at the intersection of business, innovation, and creativity that has since brought together more than 20,000 thinkers and makers from these areas in Graz, Austria. Together, they’ve shared ideas, pushed each other forward and helped shape the future.
In collaboration with our local partners, we have decided that Istanbul is the best city to host the first international edition of Fifteen Seconds Festival. In April 2020, we are hitting the Bosphorus to host a business conference, done differently: no egos, no agendas, no bullshit. Rather an immersive two-day experience designed to make you grow. Join 4,000 forward-thinking attendees and see for yourself.

Expo Area
