DemoFest
Real People. Real Projects. Real Stories.
Explore real-life solutions created by L&D masters at DemoFest. This attendee favorite is one of the most fun and inspirational activities at DevLearn. It’s a huge, science fair-like event where you’ll move from table to table, discussing tools, tech, and processes with those who built them. Did we mention there are free drinks, too?
