Holy moly do we have a big announcement for you. It’s time to share the schedule of 2023 events. Our mantra has been, “we now return to our regularly scheduled programming.” But that’s not entirely true. During the pandemic, we learned so much about putting on online events and the community really embraced them. And we know for many of you it gave you more value with access to topics and people you wouldn’t have been exposed to otherwise. So instead, let’s return to our greatly enhanced programming. And if you keep reading, you'll see exactly what's on the schedule.
Introducing Your 2023 Bureau Events
Sheesh! Over 40 Events? And most are free for members? How do you even plan for something like that? Well, I'm glad you asked. There were a few things we wanted to make sure we accomplished next year:
Offering free and lower-cost events with the economic uncertainty
Opportunities for each audience in the Bureau to improve their skills
Event times that are more accessible across member timezones
More chances for members to share their expertise with the community
A predictable flow for monthly recurring events, but also…
Spontaneous events when we need to learn unexpected things quickly

Monthly Recurring Events
Bureau Role Calls | Third Week of the Month (These free events start in January.)
This is your chance to talk with people who do what you do. If you’re an owner, operator, digital pm, design leader, tech leader, in biz dev, marketing, or account management we’ve got you covered. And we know you may want to attend more than one, so we’ve spread them out over a few days.
Member Open Mic | First Thursday of the Month at 12pm ET (These free events start in February.)
We’ve had some fantastic member presentations over the past few months and we want to formalize them this year. So the first Thursday of each month we’ll be welcoming you or one of your peers to take the mic and share what you know.
Whew! Did you make it all the way through? Go get a drink of water, I'll wait.
