Get involved with the Annual Conference 2023 - sponsorship & exhibition opportunities!

Blurred view of exhibition hall and visitors

This year, we are offering new ways to connect with our community as an exhibitor or sponsor, to make the most of our 30th anniversary celebrations and in-person programme at the University of Warwick. 

Join us and over 500 learning technologists for our first fully-fledged Annual Conference since 2019. We have mutliple opportunities to get involved as an exhibitor or sponsor for this year's Conference. 

The ALT Annual Conference is the UK’s foremost conference for Learning Technologists and one of the largest conferences of its kind, attracting around 500 participants each year. This year, we are celebrating three decades since ALT was established in 1993 with our 30th annual conference. This year’s conference theme, “Looking through the digital lens: 30 years of Leading People, Digital and Culture”, will celebrate our 30th anniversary and the phenomenal changes in the sector over this time.

The conference will critically examine the organisations and practices we work in through a digital lens, fostering a community of future leaders and innovators in the digital space, who come together to exchange ideas, collaborate, and drive change. Community in this context also means thinking about what expertise is needed - well beyond the educational technology and technical expertise: organisational change leadership and management, business analysis, and the student voice.

The event will take place on 5th - 7th September 2023, The Oculus, University of Warwick, UK.

This is the event we have been waiting for and we look forward to working with you to make it happen.
