SYNC Spring: The Vision

On April 11, we're going global with a unique hybrid experience connecting Syrian tech talents worldwide.

Our event will still be on!

Sync I and Sync II was initially an in-person conference bridging Silicon Valley and Syria, but due to regional security concerns, we are unable to host all our attendees and guests in Syria.

With our Syrian spirit despite obstacles, we decided to pivot the 2026 edition for Sync as a borderless virtual conference, connecting the world to Sync.
