What Past Attendees Are Saying...

I liked the sessions that focused on case studies, and details of how Universities addressed challenges with practical solutions. The sponsors were very friendly and engaging, too!

The sessions delivered by other institutions are most valuable to me. I find that it's helpful to know what colleagues are working on in their universities.

The meet and greet was great! There were a handful of sessions I got a lot out of, topics like fluid forms, power apps, and power of ai were informative.

The format of this event worked really well. There were plenty of sessions to choose from with a good variety of topics I was interested in.
