Can I present?
Speakers have been selected, but you can always convene a group during Open Space (see below)
What is Open Space?
Part of our meeting will be in the Open Space format. This is an opportunity for attendees in real-time to co-create the agenda and then meet with others who are interested in exploring these emergent, attendee-driven topics. These are NOT presentations or lectures; they are discussions, share-outs, or anything else those in the session deem it to be. If you've never done one, you are in for a treat!
