TLC Live Meetup
Coming soon!
The Test & Learn Community works with our wonderful partners to plan awesome meetups in some of the cities around the world where our TLCers work and live - ensuring you get to meet your local optimizers.
The events are always free for local practitioners across data, experimentation, product, marketing, and UX, where we discuss various topics that are of interest to the community.
The event opens with a panel of industry voices, then everyone breaks into small groups to discuss what they heard, and it wraps with a happy hour on us.
🎟️ Free to attend · Food & Drink Provided · Spaces are limited · RSVP required
How the Nights Work
Panel Discussion: A moderated panel of practitioners sharing how they're tackling a particular topic
Roundtable Discussion: Everyone will break into small groups, with every table discussing the same questions covered during the panel
Quick Share-Back: A few tables will share back what was discussed and anything noteworthy that sparked discussion or disagreement
Happy Hour: 30 minutes to mingle, meet the panelists, and keep talking shop
Happy Hours are free and open to all, but seating is limited, and RSVP is required.

Testimonials
"Experimentation island was easily the best conference I've ever been to. I came hoping for knowledge and connection with experienced experimentation professionals, and left with that and more-connections, community, support, and many more ideas to take back to my team than from any other conference I've been to."
Elizabeth, Product Data Scientist

"#Ei2026 is by far the most unique professional conference I've ever attended. It's easy to get lost in the mix at conferences with thousands of attendees. The intimate vibe made it easy to get to know one another."
