What a year it has been! At times, it seemed as though the world had been turned upside down, while realities are shifting at an accelerated rate.
This is the moment to find out if we are able to keep up, rethink, reimagine, and refocus everything that we know. Whether we can make use of technology to do so, as boundaries between our normal lives and virtual and artificial reality are becoming increasingly blurry. While different individuals, societies, and generations, like GenZ, all have distinctive views on what is and is not.
The time has come for brands to put their brand DNA to the test, determine the future of digital trends, and figure out how to prepare for these exciting and challenging times.
Join us in shaping the future of digital—alongside 2,500+ leaders, creatives, technologists, marketers, and digital consumers—for one of the most exciting and iconic DEPT® events as we explore the defining trends of 2023 across culture, business and technology.

Coco Chanel famously said that, “In order to be irreplaceable, one must always be different.”
It’s time for brands to forget about the “new normal” and start work on the next normal. And, thanks to digital, this “normal” will be anything but.
Technology has unlocked innovative new ways for brands to amplify their unique brand identity and tap into the needs of digital native customers. DEPT® has already helped brands like ASOS, Patagonia and Ganni enter the next normal by developing social commerce campaigns and re-defining the e-commerce customer experience.
Join us in exploring fashion’s next normal, during a day of DEPT® Talks featuring speakers across fashion, tech & everything in between. Learn from industry leaders, including those below, what their plans are for the digital future.
