SEE EVENT DETAILS
at General Assembly
(see times)
Will the Apple Watch define a new product category like the iPad? Is there significant pent-up demand for wearables in 2015? Or do these visionary products offer just a glimmer into the future of what’s to come, like the Apple Newton did in 1993? Hear respected thought leaders provide their perspective on the soon-to-be-released Apple Watch, and how it will impact the wearable device market in 2015.
