Converge is Globant’s executive event that gathers some of the brightest minds that are reshaping the future today.
From Buenos Aires to Madrid and New York, the event has landed in the main hubs of the world to share the experience of the greatest minds.
"Every change we have in the world can’t be done just in your brain. It needs engineers to sit down, go through frustrations, and build things that didn’t exist before."
"Globant is playing the game of reinventing. From the very beginning, we started bringing into the team people who knew about design and innovation. Today we have a disruptive team that is blended in the same culture."
"We are witnessing the moment where AI is starting to deeply understand our natural language, the way we speak, the way we write, and the way we communicate ideas. This is very relevant in many contexts of human life, but especially in business."
