Attendees of ETA will have the opportunity to sit across the table from and get  in discussion with almost all of the event's renowned presenters. Thirty minute presentations are followed by twenty minute discussions at round tables; each presenter changes tables every hour, providing unparalleled access to real conversations with leaders in the field.

While ETA is an invite only event, there are a limited number of tickets available via application. Want to attend? Apply here.
