With 2022 showing that hybrid events were the future, we expanded both onsite and virtual content this year.

• Online, we used a new platform that improved networking and interaction between attendees, as well as adding some dedicated virtual-only workshops that welcomed nearly a thousand participants.
• In person, we added a second building (the Horticulture Building in Lansdowne Park) dedicated to workshops, and installed six soundproofed booths that allowed physical attendees to join their colleagues online.

We also added a three-week Executive Cohort that began with four web-based sessions, and culminated in two days of in-person meetings at the Canadian Center for Cybersecurity. Conceived entirely for public servant executives, this new content looked at leadership, cultural change, and other front-of-mine topics for those leading the charge to build digital services and modernize government.

We also expanded our department pass model with a No Department Left Behind program, which ensured that in the face of sweeping budget cuts nearly every Canadian federal department could participate in the event. And we added a library of nearly 30 books written by our past and current speakers for attendees to browse.
