Artist and designer Monika Bielskyte will join AVIXA’s TIDE conference at #ISE2018 in Amsterdam as the closing keynote speaker. On Feb. 5, 2018 the day before the #ISE2018 show floor opens, Bielskyte will join a roster of influential innovators, designers, and marketers at Hotel Okura Amsterdam to explore the creative forces shaping the AV industry.

Bielskyte creates future-world prototypes for the entertainment industry, technology companies, and cities. A large part of her time is devoted to research and strategy in the immersive media technology space (augmented, mixed, and virtual reality). Her clients include Hollywood production companies Ridley Scott Associates, Universal, and Dreamworks; technology giants CERN, Intel, and Google; design companies Rick Owens and Aston Martin; and the United Arab Emirates government.

Bielskyte will bookend the conference that kicks off with opening keynote speaker Daan Roosegaarde, an internationally acclaimed creative thinker and founder of Studio Roosegaarde. His firm develops projects that explore the relationship between people, technology, and space.

The TIDE conference in Amsterdam will focus on design thinking, bringing together designers, brand marketers, content creators, systems integrators, live events producers, and end users to share their different perspectives. These innovators will demonstrate the dynamic results and incredible experiences that come from taking a closer look at the role design plays in business.

Also joining the TIDE conference is Ben Moorsom, President and Chief Creative Officer of Debut Group, a marketing agency focused on experiential training, event production and communications consulting. Moorsom is transforming the way companies communicate by drawing upon research in the fields of neuroscience and human psychology.
