The Great Acceleration

Boardwave Live 2024

Our Biggest Event Yet

Boardwave Live 2024 was our largest gathering to date, bringing together over 400 members for the second instalment of our annual flagship conference. Alongside the Winter Networking Event, Boardwave Live offers exclusive insights and strategies from leaders who are not just navigating the industry’s rapid evolution, but actively driving it forward.

The Great Acceleration

Seizing Opportunities in a Transformative Era

This year’s theme, 'The Great Acceleration,' reflected the incredible pace of change reshaping our industry - driven especially by advancements in AI. We find ourselves at a landmark moment in history, akin to the great transformative periods of the past, and the software sector is uniquely positioned at the heart of this transformation. Boardwave Live 2024 was about more than envisioning the future; it was designed to equip our community with actionable strategies to expedite business growth and fully capitalise on the opportunities of this new era.

Another great event. For me, the mix of insightful talks and connections with peers from diverse industries is always a worthwhile investment in time. And the unexpected Strictly cameo really made the event.
