Setting the stage for Gapstars’ Biggest Virtual Conference
As a rapidly growing tech company, Gapstars believes in working collaboratively towards innovation. Gapstars provides B2B software solutions to startups and scaleups in Europe with a workforce of 175+ operating from Sri Lanka, which is expected to increase to 300+ by the end of the next year. Gapstars began the Explorer Series in 2019, intending to share its experience with the growing tech community. The concept for this conference originated when the company was looking for ways to give back to society, as it strongly believes in empowerment through education.
After completing several editions, the series is set to host Explorer Expanded (EX) – its biggest ever virtual conference. The senior tech community, technopreneurs and aspiring entrepreneurs, the startup community, and all emerging technology enthusiasts are welcome to participate in this first-of-its-kind conference, powered by Gapstars. Explore the nitty-gritty of product development from conceptualization to construction, and the emergence of the future of tech through domains such as Web 3.0, deciphering the Metaverse, and much more!
