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. Each 50-minute session should be interactive, problem-driven, and outcome-focused, ensuring every participant walks away with something they can apply.

  • Purpose: Co-create solutions to real-world architectural challenges.

    Format:
    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.

  • Purpose: Explore a focused architectural topic through structured discussion and peer experience sharing.

    Format:
    Facilitator poses a challenge question, guides conversation across diverse perspectives, and keeps the discussion grounded in practical solutions.

    Tangible Benefit:
    Attendees gain actionable insights and patterns from others who’ve faced similar challenges—plus a summary of key takeaways captured for post-event sharing.

    Ideal for: Experienced architects and consultants who want to exchange lessons learned rather than deliver presentations.

  • Purpose: Rapid collaboration on specific platform challenges or design decisions.

    Format:
    Participants bring a problem or scenario, and the facilitator helps the group collectively analyze, brainstorm, and troubleshoot in real time. Think “architectural office hours”—collaborative, candid, and constructive.

    Tangible Benefit:
    Participants walk away with practical recommendations, resource references, and frameworks to guide their next implementation.

    Ideal for: Facilitators skilled at guiding diverse problem sets, fostering peer learning, and connecting ideas across domains.
