The in-person program took place September 29–October 2, 2026, in Denver, followed by an online event scheduled for October 14–15, 2026.

It was held in Denver, Colorado, and online.

Higher-education IT professionals and technology providers were the intended attendees.

It was most useful for higher-education IT leaders and staff, along with technology providers selling to campuses, since the conference was billed as the largest gathering of that community and the general sessions were scheduled to include Adam Grant and Heather McGowan on work and organizations. The October 14-15 listing was the online portion, following the in-person Denver event, so those who wanted hallway networking or vendor meetings would have gotten less from it.

The October 14-15 sessions were online, so attendees typically dressed as for a normal workday video call, in a casual top or business casual.
