WHAT IS BRAINDATE?

people sitting in a braindate conversation at a table with the number 4 in the middle of the tableTechLearn 2026 is excited to introduce Braindate — a people-powered learning experience designed to help you get more out of your conference experience! It brings you together for one-on-one and small-group conversations based on shared interests, questions, and challenges.

There are no panels, pitches, or formal presentations. Just real conversations with peers who are here to learn, share, and think together. Braindate turns the conference into a marketplace of ideas where you network the way you want, on the topics you want, with the people you want. Tap into collective wisdom ... and build connections rooted in meaningful dialogue rather than chance encounters.

  2. Post a Topic: Share a question, challenge, or idea you want to explore. Topics can be practical, strategic, or exploratory.
     
  3. Join a Topic: Browse the Topic Market and sign up for conversations that spark your curiosity or align with your work.
     
  4. Meet in Person: The Tuesday Braindate takes place at 4:30 pm in the Zlotnik Ballroom ... and all other Braindates take place face-to-face Wednesday and Thursday in the Braindate Lounge (M2 Lobby). Conversations can be scheduled in advance so you know exactly when and where to go.
 

NETWORK THE WAY YOU WANT. ON THE TOPICS YOU WANT. WITH THE PEOPLE YOU WANT.
