Discussion Rounds and Immersive Deep Dives
Included in all SMX Tickets (no extra fee)
Pre-registration required
1) Discussion Rounds: BEST ADVICE EVER
You are surrounded by fellow search experts, and there is no better place to discuss and share our common problems. Off the record, and in a small group. These are your people – they understand your situation. Often rated the best part of the event, sharing your problems with like-minded professionals is your path to answers, a little empathy, and a stronger professional network. Come prepared with an issue you are facing, a problem you are solving, or a question that needs answering. And then, be ready and willing to help others to overcome their challenges.
The discussion rounds are limited to 10 attendees each and are included in every SMX conference ticket.
Topics will be announced in early 2026
2) Immersive Deep Dives
Immersive Deep Dives are extended, hands-on, 2 hour sessions to collaboratively tackle real-world challenges. Rather than following predefined steps, you’ll uncover solutions through dynamic group interaction. Each session is centred around real-life case studies, with a facilitator to ensure guidance, focus, and structure.
Move beyond traditional sessions and workshops to a deeper level of engagement. You’re not passively learning, but actively applying knowledge in a mutual, outcome-driven setting. The focus is on practical application, offering a safe space to experiment with new strategies and approaches.
How to register: The Immersive Deep Dives are open to all SMX attendees at no extra cost, but spots are limited (12 per session). If more people apply than available spaces, spots will be allocated via a raffle.
Topics will be announced in early 2026.
