  • 1.  One Thing You'd Tell a First-Timer attending TechXchange?

    Posted 09/03/25 05:36 PM

    This will be my first time attending the TechXchange conference. What would you recommend for a first-timer? What should I attend, know, do, see? What were your favorite memories from past TechXchange conferences?

    Actually, I can think of a few. 

    Make sure you get the app before registration on site - it will make things easier: https://www.linkedin.com/posts/chriswinston_ibmchampion-maximo-activity-7368432483199057920-EomQ?utm_source=share&utm_medium=member_desktop&rcm=ACoAAABn7LYB84Hu_Z1R2MR7uHDFRPy3Jm3Yomc

    Start building your agenda now - some sessions fill up adn you won't be abel to get in: https://www.linkedin.com/posts/chriswinston_maximo-activity-7368070097153757184-CIOx?utm_source=share&utm_medium=member_desktop&rcm=ACoAAABn7LYB84Hu_Z1R2MR7uHDFRPy3Jm3Yomc

    Don't forget about the labs. They are well done, and the hardware is already set up and ready for you to use upon arrival: https://www.linkedin.com/posts/chriswinston_ibmtechxchange-activity-7254160222397612034-XCMF?utm_source=share&utm_medium=member_desktop&rcm=ACoAAABn7LYB84Hu_Z1R2MR7uHDFRPy3Jm3Yomc

    I would suggest wearing comfortable shoes!

    And I second the suggestions Chris Winston listed.

    I would suggest Networking with other Champions, understand the lay out the floor to make the most use of your time, and finally listen, listen!  I've gone twice and enjoy all the networking and learning that comes from Tech Exchange.

    Definitely build your agenda beforehand. There are so many great sessions and a lot of them are going on at the same time, you'll have to pick and choose which to attend. Sign up for any lunch and learns early, they fill up fast. 

    TechXchange is awesome, but can also be exhausting. I'm always worn out by the end of the day. 

    Have a great time!
