EdSurge’s First International Education Technology Events Calendar

Twice per year, EdSurge creates a calendar of K-12 and higher education technology events in the U.S. and beyond. Each year, as the list grows, the font gets smaller and smaller—while there are still plenty of events to include.

That’s why in 2019, we’re offering something new: an additional events calendar dedicated to edtech events happening outside the U.S.

You can still expect some of the best parts of our K-12 and higher-ed calendars: dates, location and a short description for each event, plus a link to where you can find out more. And like our K-12 and higher-ed events calendars, this one is also free to download.

EdSurge primarily covers education and technology in the U.S., but you’ll occasionally see us at these events as well. (Here’s what we filed from Beijing and Tokyo last fall. ) EdSurge also offers its own annual edtech conference, Fusion, and our one-day entrepreneur workshop, Immersion.

Can’t make any of these events? EdSurge HigherEd regularly hosts meetups and Twitter chats on online learning and higher education technology. We also host virtual townhalls, called EdSurge Live, where we invite experts to speak about the latest trends and issues.

To stay up to date on those opportunities and more, subscribe to one of our three newsletters, and follow us on Twitter and Facebook. Not on social? We also have a podcast, which you can find it on Apple Podcasts, Soundcloud, Spotify or wherever you listen.

The calendar below names more than 50 edtech conferences happening outside the U.S. in 2019. For the few events where dates and location are still pending, you’ll see “TBA.” You can also click on the events for a link to their website to find out more.

In case you’re wondering…

Gold, red, blue: What do these colors mean?

There are a lot of conferences on this list (now 54 to be exact). To help narrow things down, we've designated the primary audience for each event:

  • Blue events focus on teaching and learning and are targeted at instructors, faculty and instructional designers (though some of these events involve exhibitor halls).
  • Red events emphasize the business of edtech more than pedagogy.
  • Gold events are tightly focused around a topic or specific audience, such as libraries or community colleges.

Your link took me to a conference that already happened or doesn’t exist yet. What gives?

We confirmed with conference organizers all dates for future events that aren’t yet listed on their site. We linked to the most relevant websites we could find; pages that appear outdated should be updated by the organizers in the coming months.

Where can I find your calendar of U.S. edtech events?

Here’s the K-12 calendar and here is the higher-ed calendar.

Aw, you left out my favorite event!
