If you've been part of TCBL from the start, you know about our "Jams", which have always been part of our annual event. These are networking sessions, super short pitches to tell others what you've been working on lately and open up opportunities for networking and discussion. Since 2021, we've been doing these online.
We enjoy grouping people who we think might have something in common, so we've created loose "clusters" rather than themes of discussion for the groups, which are listed below, because what's really important here is the possibility to create interesting connections. The finalized lineup for the 2022 sessions will be communicated as we firm up the groups; the list below is to help you book off the slot that most interests you in your calendar.
Here's how to participate
All slots to PITCH have been taken - so make a note to sign up early for next year's edition!
You can still LISTEN (and chat), join the zoom call at 5pm on the dates listed below at TCBL Jam Zoom.
