I may be personally biased as the emcee for this session… but I genuinely think this is going to be one of the best EDU User Group conversations of the year.
We’re sitting down with Johann and Jack from the University of Virginia (UVA) for a candid fireside chat on how they’ve rapidly and thoughtfully scaled Airtable across a large, complex institution. Jack, formerly a Smartsheet power user turned Airtable extraordinaire, will share what actually worked (and what didn’t), from licensing everyone and managing access, to building trust-driven governance without a top-down mandate.
We’ll dig into how UVA runs a community-led Center of Excellence, uses peer collaboration to share use cases, and balances tight governance with real autonomy. Expect practical examples, honest tool comparisons, a bit of technical depth, and plenty of time for your questions.
We’ll also make it interactive with live polls and concrete takeaways you can bring back to your own campus.

If you’re thinking about scaling Airtable in higher ed—or already in the thick of it—I’d love to see you there.
