Announcing the Postback 2018 Speaker List

Postback is the mobile event of the summer, an event where you bump into the smartest, most innovative, industry-leading thinkers sitting in the seats next to you, walking through the hallway between sessions, dancing at a party by the Space Needle — and of course, taking the main stage. Keynotes in the past have featured bestselling author Malcolm Gladwell, futurist Ray Kurzweil, and head coach Pete Carroll of the Seattle Seahawks.

So who’s on tap for #Postback18? Check out our full list of presenters, or read below for a list of the headliners you can’t miss.
