Sónar+D at Expand North Star

Every year at Sónar, innovation meets culture at Sónar+D, an ‘anti-disciplinary’ programme of conferences, installations, masterclasses and performances in the heart of Sónar by Day. After a decade of expanding horizons in Barcelona and Istanbul, Lisboa, Hong Kong and many others, Sónar+D traveled to Dubai this October, to take part in the world’s largest event for startups and investors: Expand North Star.

From 13th - 16th October, Sónar+D curated a customised exhibition space, showcasing ideas and projects at the leading edge of creative technology and innovation. On 14th October, Sónar+D took the 'The Future of Creativity' stage for a series of talks by the artists, thinkers, and researchers behind the exhibits.

This first collaboration brought together the creative foresight of Sónar+D with the expertise of Expand North Star, an event known for delivering an unmatched content programme debating the latest investment and founder trends, economic landscapes and the next big stories.
