LOS ANGELES, CA–(Oct 30, 2017) – Oblong Industries, Inc., the pioneer of interactive spatial computing environments for the new era of collaborative work, confirms that CEO John Underkoffler will be taking to the stage at hub.berlin. This much-anticipated technology and innovation event is set to take place in tech hot-spot Berlin, Germany, next month.

The hub.berlin stage attracts an international line-up of elite speakers and includes technology company founders and global players, plus innovators and established creators, who meet to drive new projects and market conversations forward. This year a lineup of outstanding speakers will take to the stage to talk about their experiences and to share their perspectives on digital transformation. Over 2,000 delegates are expected to attend the event at STATION-Berlin, one of the city’s most striking destinations for events and conferences.

John Underkoffler will be speaking at 11.15am on the Tech Arena stage on Tuesday 28th November. His thought-provoking talk is entitled “The Future is Plural” and predicts that the greatest successes over the next ten years in business, science, civic and governmental affairs will arrive when organizations are able to support and sustain collaboration. Underkoffler suggests that to get there, the digital tools that underlie all modern work must become “WE by default”. At the event, he will describe new and empowering UI technologies that are scalable, can be synchronized across distance, and that enable simultaneous control, so that participants work in the most human mode.

Underkoffler explains, “Spaces outfitted with this new kind of UI look like science fiction, but the amplified collaboration that take place in them is an entirely natural and intuitive mode. I look forward to sharing my vision about the future of work on the hub.berlin stage.”
