Our team is counting down the days to EDUCAUSE 2022. Of course, there's a ton of interesting higher ed IT sessions planned. We're spotlighting all the content we saw that touches on cloud adoption, infrastructure, and operations. We include some of the digital transformation, leadership, and career planning sessions as well.
You'll also find fun learning and networking options in this EDUCAUSE 2022 guide - and some nearby food options.
I hope you'll visit us on the expo floor (booth 1535): we have useful swag lined up, some refreshments, and a great team of cloud experts. If you'd like to book a dedicated time to meet, we've got that option too!

First time? EDUCAUSE is hosting a newcomers' webinar in advance of the show.
EDCAUSE is not providing lunch during the event this year. However, you can find some specialty food and beverages provided by exhibitors in the expo hall and there are concession stands in the venue. If you want a break outside the convention center, here are some nearby lunch spots: Jimmy John’s, PokeClub, Snarf’s Sandwiches, Pizza Republica, Terra Denver, Beirut Grill, Chipotle, and Jamba Juice.
