Braindate

3 people sitting together talking

To make the most of the ELI Annual Meeting, spend some of your time speaking with people who share your interests, ambitions and concerns. Don’t miss this opportunity to tap into the collective knowledge of the higher education teaching and learning community. But how do you spark those meaningful conversations? It all starts with a braindate.

What is a braindate?

Braindates are one-on-one or small group knowledge-sharing conversations that you book with other conference participants using the Braindate platform. They’re the best way to meet with, learn from, and have useful discussions with new people during the conference.
