The content is split into two different tracks. On the main stage you'll find traditional talks from our fantastic set of speakers, including a keynote by Andrea Goulet.
The rest of the content is in the style of an Open Space event. If you've got a topic that you'd like to explore, a workshop that you'd like to facilitate, or a talk that you'd like to present then you can grab a spot on the schedule during the Open Space pitch session.
Or you can just attend either track or mix and match.
