Read why previous attendees proclaim that CMK is not like any other conference! In fact, it’s not a conference at all. Check out some of the amazing learning stories from previous institute.

This year’s Constructing Modern Knowledge Big Night in the City, features an exciting reception at the MIT Media Lab, before you head out and explore the Boston area. Our institute dinner will once again be at an all-you-can-eat Brazilian churrascaria. Participants also receive a collection of open-ended creativity software to use and keep.

While the rest of the country is sweltering from the summer heat, Manchester (known to the locals as “Manchvegas”), NH is cool, quaint and filled with great restaurants.
