1/ We took a risk last year and completely transformed our @MicroConf events. Starting in April 2022, we shifted the focus from talks to forging connections between founders. 🔥🔥
2/ For the past 12 years MicroConfers have raved about the value of the hallway track. But those conversations were reserved for lunches and evenings, since we had 9 speakers over 2 days. But last year we reduced our speaker count to 6, and our most recent event in Europe had 4.
3/ We're taking that extra time and dedicating it to improv classes, trapeze lessons, brewery tours & more to let founders make connections while having new experiences.
4/ And we’ve added Founder-by-Founder, a session where attendees have multiple 7 minute blocks to connect with someone they’ve never met. Everyone’s nervous at first, but the results and feedback have been overwhelmingly positive.
5/ #MicroConf has always been about connecting founders, but we’ve doubled down on that with these changes.
6/ I was worried doing this would break the event, but instead it created a huge increase in relationship-building... and the response has been better than I could have hoped.
7/ If you haven’t been to MicroConf in a couple years, it’s a very different event. Tickets to MicroConf US in Denver in April will sell out.
