Why offline sells better

Attention is now
the real currency

To make a sale, you have to hold someone's attention for longer than three seconds. Nobody gets that much time in a feed.

In the feed 3 sec how long your banner lives before the thumb moves on
×600difference
On stage 30–60 min the whole room's attention belongs to one person
In a feed, attention is stolen. On stage, it is given freely. People bought the ticket, made the trip and chose to listen. That is why live events outsell any targeted ad, and why demand for them keeps growing.
RESEARCH

The concept

BACK TO
THE FUTURE

An expo-forum on the trends of 2027

The whole forum is built around one question: what will actually work in 2027, once today's playbooks stop making money.

"Roads? Where we're going, we don't need roads." A forum for the people building the market while everyone else is still studying it.
6 VECTORSwhat the forum is really about
01Trends Which markets and tools will grow by 2027, and where the money runs out ahead of schedule
02Strategies Product, sales, team, step by step. Every speaker hands over a working playbook with real numbers
03Connections 1,500 founders, an expo floor, breakfasts and an afterparty. You find a partner in a single day
04Investment Where CIS money is flowing, what the Asian market looks like today, and how capital is protected
05Relocation Bali, Thailand, Vietnam, China. How to move a business, and what it actually costs
06Venture Where funds and angels are putting money now, how they value startups, and who gets a no
PULSE Expo-Forum · Concept
Why this forum, and why now

What paid the bills through 2025
will stop working in 2027.

1985How it was
  • Traffic was something you bought
  • Teams grew in step with revenue
  • A business was tied to one country
  • Strategy was written for five years
  • Expertise took years to build
  • Your competitors sat in your city
88 MPH
2027How it will be
  • Attention is earned with content
  • Teams scale with AI agents in a week
  • A business lives wherever you live
  • Planning horizon: two quarters
  • Expertise is built in a single season
  • Your competitor is abroad and never sleeps
Whoever reads the trends a year early takes the market. Everyone else buys that same market back later at triple the price.
PULSE Expo-Forum · Why now

A catalyst for inspiring, teaching and uniting leaders and entrepreneurs. A one-of-a-kind space to trade ideas, build new strategies and deepen the professional relationships that move a business forward.

Daniil & David
Liberman

Co-founders of Product Science Inc. and the Gonka AI protocol

Raised in Moscow in a family of biophysicists. For twenty years they have been building companies, from the game studio Sibilant Interactive and the media outlet Kanobu to the AR startup Kernel, acquired by Snap in 2016, after which both joined Snap's product team as directors
Pioneered investing in people: 30-year contracts where an investor buys a share of one person's future income instead of a company. They valued themselves at $200M and raised their first $4M at that valuation
Their flagship today is Gonka, a network where any GPU owner, from a single card to a data center, plugs into real inference workloads and earns GNK tokens. Within three months of launch it passed the equivalent of 6,000 H100s, followed by $50M from Bitfury as the first check of its billion-dollar program

PULSE Expo-Forum · Programme
Extra format 01 · Investment panel

Where the money runs

An honest read on where capital is moving in Asia and beyond, from people who invest themselves

  • What the Asian market actually looks like right now, beyond the headlines
  • Where CIS founders are putting their money, and what really works
  • How capital is protected when the rules change every quarter
  • What exists beyond real estate: funds, debt plays, stakes in operating businesses

BaliThailandVietnamChina
  • People from four markets each explain theirs from the inside, the good and the bad

  • Which niches locals already own, and where it's pointless to enter
  • How to keep your team, clients and revenue through the move

PULSE Expo-Forum · Programme
Format 03 · The venture market

The unicorn arena

Both sides of the table on one stage: the person writing the check and the person asking for it

From the investor's side
  • Where funds and angels put money in 2027
  • How they run the valuation and what gets cut first
  • Who gets a no, and the slide where they close the deck
From the founder's side
  • Which metrics are even worth walking in with
  • How to raise a round without giving up control
  • Where to find the first check when you have no name yet
FORMAT
A fight in the arenainvestors vs. founders, the room is the judge

What partnering with
PULSE Expo-Forum gives you

Reputation

Partner status at the largest business forum in Bali and Southeast Asia. Your brand becomes known as the name behind the island's key business event.

Relationships

Face time with business owners in a relaxed setting: business breakfasts, the lounge, the afterparty. A real conversation instead of a banner.

Promotion

Your brand rides along with all of the forum's marketing: the website hero, email campaigns, social media, press coverage and speaker posts. You pay once and stay in front of the audience for six months, before the event and after it.

Conversion

Turning contacts into new clients for your company. That is the whole point.

Joint campaign

A co-branded campaign under both logos: exclusive terms for your clients on behalf of the forum, tickets as a perk in your loyalty program, shared reach online and offline. A genuinely useful reason to reach out to your database again.

PULSE Expo-Forum · Partnership

Your top executives attend as guests of the forum. A different level of conversation with the decision-makers in the room.

01.3 Choice of seating

Your guests sit where you decide: front rows by the stage or a block next to the right people. Seating becomes a tool.

01.4 Exclusive terms for your clients

The best ticket discount available, offered in your name. A ready-made gift for your loyalty program that costs you nothing.

01.5 2 Premium invitations

04.3 Branded seating

A dedicated block of seats for your clients and guests, visible from the floor and from the stage.
