F3 Events

WHAT’S F3?

Future Focus Forums from EdTech Digest bring edtech firms in front of high-level school district technology leaders and are the most effective way to get accurate feedback on new and existing products.

WHO ARE THEY FOR?

These forums are for your company. They are for your:

• founder/CEO,
• a marketing executive,
• the product lead, and
• even a business development person.

Every firm is driven by sales—but to get sales, you need a high-quality product that meets your customers’ goals.

If that’s what you know and believe, then these forums are most definitely for you!

HOW DO THEY WORK?

The centerpiece of these 1-day events is your 2.5-hour private panel.

1. First, you choose 3 people from your company to attend F3. These events are held right before a major edtech conference you were already planning on attending (e.g., FETC, CoSN, ISTE). Just arrange to come a day early!

2. Weeks ahead, we help you craft an agenda, a set of questions, in 4-5 key areas. (We provide an experienced meeting Chairperson, and 5+ panelists to provide their observations, insight, anecdotes, expertise, feedback, etc.)

3. See you there! Enjoy a networking lunch; your private panel (under NDA) is audio recorded and you get the transcript and a written report on key findings of the panelists; cap it off with a lively networking dinner. See you again* soon!

*100% of companies in our 2024 pilot year signed up for more F3 events!

HOW MUCH DO THEY COST?

Future Focus Forums are practical, tactical. They are nuts and bolts, cut-to-the-chase. We don’t go golfing or go on wine-tasting excursions (although our networking dinners are delectable, for sure!).

But we do bring in very talented, smart people to provide you with the very best expert feedback. And we provide ideal conditions for best results.

We don’t charge $40K. We don’t charge $25K. It’s way less!

Talk to an F3 Corporate Advisor for current prices and availability (it is limited). If you’re an early-stage startup, small business, nonprofit, or if you’d like to get multiple panels, you may be eligible for certain discounts.

This makes our service accessible—and economical. And one more thing…

…Also consider that you’ll save in both travel costs and time, as this is a trip you may likely already be planning on anyway, namely: FETC 2027 in Orlando, CoSN 2027 in Orlando, and/or ISTE+ASCD 2027 in Boston.
