Following the success of last year’s edition, we’re excited to welcome you back to the Festival of Disruption on Thursday 3 December 2026.

Join us for a day of inspiring keynotes, thought-provoking discussions, interactive sessions, and meaningful networking with changemakers, researchers, entrepreneurs, policymakers, professionals, students, and anyone passionate about shaping a better future.

Get inspired | Keynote Hans Stegeman

We are delighted to announce our keynote speaker: Hans Stegeman, Chief Economist at Triodos Bank.

Hans is known for looking beyond economic figures and trends. He connects economics with societal transitions and challenges us to rethink the systems, assumptions and structures that shape the way we live and work.

“In times of disruption, transforming societies is possible. But how to do that in the right way?”

Explore | Biomimicry: learning from nature

Nature has spent 3.8 billion years solving complex challenges. What can we learn from those solutions? How do ants collaborate so effectively? What can forests teach us about resilience?

In this interactive exploration, you will discover how nature’s strategies can help reshape organisations, technology and society.

Discover | Dynamic program

Throughout the afternoon, you will be immersed in a dynamic program featuring:

FREE ENTRY – LUNCH AND NETWORKING DRINKS INCLUDED
