2020 Digital WorldBike is billed as the bicycle industry’s first ever virtual cycling conference, bringing together cycling enthusiasts, brands, advocacy groups and municipalities. The conference is organised by meetyoo, a leading provider of digital events and virtual conferences. The conference itself has a focus on bicycle safety and the future of cycling.
Taking place on March 31, 2020, the virtual conference format features ‘exhibition halls for product and brand showcases, live chats, roundtable discussions and guest speakers.’
A release from meetyoo notes that ‘With the rise of apps and virtual cycling communities, bicycle riding and the sport of cycling are moving beyond urban landscapes and into a digital age.’
Digital WorldBike is billed as the first event of its kind within the sports sector. ‘It is a connection point for people to present concepts, foster discussion and share knowledge across a global platform.’
Digital WorldBike will aim to bring together bicycle industry leaders and enthusiasts. From urban mobility to trends in tech, Digital World Bike aims to ‘create an experience for its participants while sparing them inconveniences like travel costs and preparations, time zone differences or entrance fees.’
Headlining the event is Jens Voigt, former world-class professional cyclist and current bicycle advocate. Voigt joins Digital WorldBike as one of the event founders, ‘bringing charismatic cycling inspiration, along with a vocal vision for bicycle safety.’
“Digital WorldBike allows me to combine the meetyoo vision – which is to empower global communities to connect in the most convenient and sustainable way – with my greatest hobby, cycling,” said Tony Kula, CEO at meetyoo.
“I am excited to have Jens Voigt on board with me to create this new possibility to bring together the global cycling community and raise awareness for cycling safety.”
