Architect Dreamin’ 2026 – Call for Facilitators

We’re looking for facilitators, not presenters—architects who can spark collaboration, guide discussion, and help peers explore real-world challenges together.

    Facilitators introduce a scenario or problem statement (5–10 minutes), then guide small groups through ideation, whiteboarding, and trade-off discussions. Wrap up with shared insights and key design principles.

    Tangible Benefit:
    Participants leave with a peer-validated architectural approach and a visual artifact (diagram, pattern sketch, or decision matrix) they can reuse in their own work.

    Ideal for: Solution Architects, Technical Architects, and System Architects who enjoy hands-on problem solving.
