1682: the business of innovation conference

1682 makes a return after a very successful pre-Covid conference that took place in 2019 at the Barnes Museum. Much like the original event, 1682 explores the ever-changing landscape of innovation programs, with a particular focus on how AI is influencing profits and processes. Gain behind-the-scenes insights from industry leaders on achieving success and overcoming challenges when implementing innovative, results-driven strategies.

In partnership with Five Below, the 1682 conference will be hosted at their corporate offices in downtown Philadelphia. Five Below is known for their innovative approach to retail and culture, and is also Philadelphia born and bred, much like O3, and in alignment with the 1682 brand, which commemorates Philadelphia’s founding.
