Booths are great to showcase your project, research, or organization.
Circles are collaborative talks, excellent for exploring various topics.

What Are Self-Organized Circles or Booths?

We have reserved spaces in the venue that participants can use to organize a self-organized Circle or Booth. They allows for spontaneous conversations and collaboration to take place during the event. Circles spaces can be used for important conversations or coordination of collaborations, and booths can be used to showcase a project or expertise.

Note: Self-Organized Socials are Different than Self-Organized Circles or Booths

Socials happen outside of the venue and can include meetups, activities, etc. that are organized by participants. We **highly** encourage you to take advantage of the park in front of the venue and the nearby Tamariz beach to organize a Social. Get out of the venue for your health!
