  • What If I Can’t Attend Registration on Monday, the 16th?

Our team members will be available in the foyer with the badges. So, attending the registration on Monday, the 16th is not a strict requirement if you’re unable to.

This is true for existing sponsors as well as hosting any event must be included in an agreement. That includes focus group, seminar, function, training, or other activity. This is true for brands as well as event guests who use Way Up North as a means to funnel the audience.

    The presenter line-up is on its way and will be released in early June. WUN has a tradition of offering tickets at a lower price point with limited information, which requires placing confidence in our judgment. Sometimes that means withholding details such as the host city or presenters. It’s an approach that rewards those who take a leap of faith and purchase their tickets early.

  • WHAT IS THE THEME FOR BERLIN?

    When everyone’s zigging, what’s your zag? The theme for Berlin is ZAG, inspired by Marty Neimeier’s book of the same title. Each presenter’s task is to interpret ZAG and answer the question “What’s your Zag?” which connects with points of differentiation in their journey.

  • WHAT IF WAY UP NORTH IS RESCHEDULED?

    Force majeure has forced Way Up North to reschedule, so this is a road we have been down before (hello Pandemic!). So in the past, we have had no choice but rescheduling the event. If Force majeure forces a reschedule, your ticket transfers to the rescheduled event. No refunds or credit if this happens.
