Community

One community
for the search world.

Search is shifting faster than any of us can work out alone, and once a year is not enough to keep up. So Beyond Search Community meets right through the year, city by city: invite-only masterminds where people learn from each other. February is where the whole year comes together.

What it is

Not a talk. A room that works.

These are invite-only masterminds: everyone in the room puts one real problem on the table, the group pulls it apart, and you leave with a next action instead of a notebook full of theory.

Then the part nobody schedules. The session ends and nobody leaves. The conversation carries on over drinks, and most people say that is where the best of it happened.

Every room is local, but it is one community: what gets worked out in one city carries to the next. It has its own site and its own name, because it is a community rather than a mailing list.
