Forge 2024 is less than two weeks away!

Forge 2024 is just two weeks away! If you haven’t already, take a look at the near-final agenda. We’ve got speakers from Wynn Resorts, CVS Health, Panera, Samsung Wallet, SoFi, and more. Whether you’re a marketer, product manager, exec, or general Braze fan, there’s something for everybody this year. 

But Forge is more than keynotes and panels! We have tons of opportunities for networking, giving back, hands-on skill building, and more this year. 

How You Can Give Back at Forge 2024

Braze is dedicated to allocating 1% of company equity to charity through our Braze for Social Impact Fund. Stop by the Braze Cares station and donate! Drop your $25 token into a box and it will be donated to one of our three selected nonprofits: Jaya Mental Health, The Just One Project and TechSoup.

We are also taking measures to make Forge 2024 as sustainable as possible. Be on the lookout for water bottle refill stations and reusable plateware. After the event, all donatable goods will be given to our partners at Three Square.

Networking at Forge

Forge is the ultimate event for anyone who works in customer engagement! And we’ve designed this event with networking in mind (if that’s your cup of tea). Here are three ways you can mingle with other customer engagement pros: 

1. Braindate: Braindate is your opportunity to crowdsource knowledge, share your insights, and build lasting relationships with fellow attendees through one-on-one and small group conversations. More details to come next week, so stay tuned…
2. The Alloys Alley Experience: Grab a meal and peruse Alloys Alley, where you can meet with Braze Sponsors and try your hand at some fun games along the way. 
3. The Welcome & Closing Parties: Some fun, non-structured time to catch up with familiar faces and new friends you’ve made at Forge.
