Who We Are
iStack Conferences has events held in Dubai, Europe, and Asia, and our Strata Virtual Events brings you Ad World Prime. Since 2015, our conferences have grown exponentially and have become industry leaders globally with more than 50,000 attendees for our online events and 500 companies and 15,000+ attendees annually for our in person events.
At iStack Conferences, we take the business aspects of conferences and turn them into fun, stimulating experiences. Our events attract the world’s sharpest online entrepreneurs who push boundaries and are looking to connect with the world’s brightest minds. We’re business savvy, but without the suit and tie. The dimly lit rooms and stale refreshments? Not for us. Think massive stages with LED, state-of-the-art lighting. Think beer pong tournaments, adult-sized bouncy castles and night events that give Ibiza a run for its money. Here at iStack, we know that ultimately, we’re all headed to one place: the future. Our dynamic conferences reflect this. Our motto here is ‘adapt and thrive’. We value the unique, the avant-garde, the innovative. We offer flexible working hours, virtual offices and annual travel to our events.
The Team
Behind the creation of any great experience is a great team. To produce stellar events, we need a stellar crew. We take pride in recruiting the best talent from the worlds of design, marketing, development, event management and more. Time and persistence has helped us grow from a very small team to a global company that now consists of more than 30+ people from all over the world, including Europe, Philippines, USA, Canada, UAE and New Zealand.
We are now looking to expand our team further to take our vision as a company to the next level.
