Experts & Experiences

Our digital experience meant that traffic, travel, and distance were no longer barriers to celebrating, discovering, or engaging with the people and spaces that inspired us.

Synapse Summit 2021 took advantage of the digital experience by helping you create meaningful, purposeful connections and shined a light on innovative places you may never have experienced at an in-person event.  

We dove into the industries and opportunities that are driving Florida’s growth as a hive of innovation and excellence. Through roundtables, workshops, showcases, behind-the-scenes tours and insider conversations, we all connected in new and different ways.

Awards

The inaugural Synapse Innovation Awards recognized those driving innovation, promoting our community’s values of equity and inclusivity, and making a positive impact for their community. Daily Innovation showcases gave visibility to those working hard and making an impact. Industry experts and leaders selected the category winners and overall Grand Prize.
