INDUSTRY SPEAKERS


We’re doing things a little bit differently at iceBike* 2026. Instead of the usual seminar line-up we are making things a bit more interactive with daily panels, talks, interviews and booth demonstrations. The focus will be on encouraging proactivity, learning from others and taking advantage of opportunities, despite a challenging market.


It gives visitors a chance to learn and share knowledge but through our panel discussions, it’s also an opportunity to get a feel for the current state of the industry.
