This year’s FWD50 conference happens amidst one of the most consequential elections in U.S. history. Canada and the U.S. share the world's longest undefended border, and our futures are inextricably linked. Since the events of November 5 will be consequential, however they unfold, we decided to lean into the timing and run a viewing party.
On the evening of November 5, 2024, Carahsoft and FWD50 are welcoming attendees (both in-person attendees, and virtual attendees who want to make the trip) to Lansdowne Park. In keeping with our nonpartisan stance, we’ll be streaming election coverage on three screens—one left, one center, and one right. As the evening progresses, we’ll also share behind-the-scenes stories about exit polling, newsrooms, and campaign technology thanks to a few surprise guests.
