What is the virtual Confab experience like?

You’ve never attended an online event like this before! The camaraderie you’ll feel with speakers and attendees alike is hard to describe—real-time connections play out over three days of learning and fun.

For an up-close look at how the three days of the virtual Confab experience are structured, check out the Confab 2020 recap.

The main components of the conference are:

  • The exclusive Confab Slack workspace where you’ll engage in ongoing conversations about the program; meet new friends with common interests; and reconnect with old pals
