The End

in Charlotte, NC

Blend Conference had a good run and was hosted in the glorious city of Charlotte. For 3 days you could shut your devices off and enjoy some lovely conversations about user experience, design, and development and our fabulous speakers. For posterity, we present you a wrap-up of each year.

Something Different

No DevicesWait. What? You read that right. Every year we ripped folks apart from the technology they loved so much. Laptops, tablets and phones weren't allowed during our conference sessions.
Custom NotebooksWe went analog. Each person received a custom hard cover notebook along with something fancy to write with. They took notes, doodled some sketch notes, or jotted down the names of new friends.
DiversityEvery year we spent months curating a diverse group of talented speakers. Some spoke often. Others are spoke for the first time. We also did out best to help attract a diverse group of fellow attendees.

Our Alumni

Over the 3 years of the conference we invited over 160 different folks in our industry come to Charlotte. They were amazing, kind, and did such a great job making BlendConf what it was.

Supportive Sponsors

Over the years we've looking for sponsors that didn't want to be boring. I think we accomplished that and came up with some pretty interesting ideas. Our sponsors have been the best and we appreciate their support to make BlendConf a success.
