Collision, New Orleans, LA (April 30 to May 3)

First up is Collision — “America’s fastest growing tech conference,” according to Forbes — where Kin’s VP of product Alex Frenkel will participate in a May 1 panel session on “Diving into digital currencies.”

Speaking alongside Justas Pikelis (co-founder, Monetha), Noelle Acheson (editorial producer, CoinDesk), and Adryenn Ashley (CEO and president, Lolye), Alex will discuss how Kin will support digital transactions at consumer scale.

The session kicks off the event’s Growth Summit track, which is designed to showcase insights from the world’s most interesting high-growth and late-stage technology companies.

And Collision is a high-growth project, too: In just four years since launch, the conference has grown to over 25,000 attendees from 119 countries.

Collision was created by the team behind Web Summit and covers many different areas of tech. In addition to hosting Alex on-stage, for example, the conference will also welcome Kik’s director of trust and safety Catherine Teitelbaum for a panel on reputation and trust in online communities.
