Our Campfires take place online via Zoom, making it easy for experience professionals around the world to connect, learn and share ideas.
Each session brings together experts from different sectors and countries for insightful discussions, practical learning and valuable connections.
We also organise opportunities to meet in person throughout the year.
To accommodate our global community, we often host two sessions on the same topic at different times.
An early and a late session make it easier for members across different time zones to participate, from Asia and Europe to the Americas.
Both sessions cover the same core topic, although discussions and contributions may vary depending on who attends.
Absolutely.
Members can access our extensive on-demand library of previous Campfires, featuring expert discussions, practical insights, tools and techniques from across the Experience Economy.
Whether you miss a live session or want to revisit a particular topic, you can learn at a time that suits you.
Yes! While most Campfires take place online to make participation accessible worldwide, we also bring members together in person.
These include dedicated in-person Campfires, local member gatherings, member outings to experiences and large-scale events such as London Experience Week.
We’re also open to collaborating with organizations and events interested in hosting a WXO IRL meeting.
