Essential information

We’re excited to welcome the more than 40,000 people joining us online at Collision from April 20–22, 2021.

Content will stream and live activities will take place from 10am to 5pm EDT (3pm to 10pm GMT) each day.

The world’s leading CEOs, policymakers, investors, cultural icons and more will exchange ideas, share insights and discuss the future of our society with attendees from every industry. Our audience is made up of the brightest minds in tech, and they want to hear what you’ve got to say.

In June 2020, we moved Collision online and welcomed 32,000+ attendees to engage with content from more than 630 speakers. Our app, which has brought people together at our events for years, is now doing the same across oceans and time zones. 

Collision is designed as a two-screen experience, with the web app on your desktop computer or laptop, and the mobile app on your phone or tablet.

The web app

The web app is where your face-to-face video meetings and live activities – such as Q&As, roundtables and press conferences – will take place, and it’s the best place to watch our content. 

Key features on the web app:

  • Watch: With more than 400  speakers joining Collision, you won’t be short of things to watch. We’ll have hundreds of hours of exclusive live streaming content covering every industry touched by tech.
  • Breakout: Our live engagements and lounges have moved online. Meet other attendees by joining groups centred around a topic or industry. Start your own private Breakouts, or make them public so our 40,000+  attendees can join in.
  • Mingle: Mingle is one of the biggest hits of our online events. It’s a new speed-networking feature we’ve developed to simulate those random chance encounters that happen at live events. Three minutes of conversation is all you have and, if it goes well, you can connect instantly afterwards with the person you talked to.

The mobile app

Our mobile app is your event companion and planning tool, helping you to navigate the event schedule and discover the people and companies you’ll want to meet during Collision. 

We recommend using the chat function on the mobile app to message fellow speakers and attendees, and to schedule meetings. Once your meetings are scheduled, they will take place on the web app as face-to-face video meetings.

 The mobile app is now available to download on the App Store and on Google Play.  Your speaker success manager will send you your login details.

We’re excited to let you know that the Collision schedule is now live on our website! Find your talk by searching for its title or your name. Click on it and you will see icons on the left that allow you to share the talk’s unique URL on your social platforms.

Please note that the event will run in Toronto time. To view the schedule in your own time zone, use the toggle at the top right of the screen.

Some talks may not be viewable on the schedule because we are waiting for feedback from you or other members of the talk.

Many speakers ask us how to maximize their time at Collision. One way is to host one or more of our live activities, which will allow you to network with fellow speakers, share your knowledge, and engage with attendees. 

Hundreds of live activities hosted by speakers will take place across the three days of Collision, including Q&As, roundtables, startup Mentor Hours, press conferences and more. All of these activities will be hosted in virtual rooms on our web app. Check out some of the options here.

Your speaker success manager will be in touch to discuss these opportunities, and to work with you to find a suitable date and time if you want to get involved.

From heads of state to founders of global tech giants, our speakers are leading their industries into the future. You can find the Collision speakers list here.
