Meet LXA, Learning Experience Alliance (formerly MarTech Alliance)

TLDR: An education business focused on marketing, sales and technology

🎉
Here at the LXA we love a good #TBT as much as the next guy, but when it comes to learning - we’re not about living in the past.

A floppy disk and a Rollardex might have been cutting edge back in the day, but in 2022 we both know they’re not going to cut the mustard.

Our motto? ‘keep upgrading’. 

For us that means upgrading your skills, knowledge, network - and ultimately your career and business.

(Full disclosure: There’s always an exception to the rule - in our books, old school arcade games and 90s Hip Hop will remain timeless for all eternity. Don’t @ us.)

We don’t believe our community should be committed to ongoing growth and development alone, we hold our team to the same promise.

Our small, but talented team is ambitious, creative, curious, and committed to ongoing learning and development too.

Way back when (‘when’ being precisely 4¾ years ago), we introduced the first anti-conference dedicated to marketing technology. Behold, AntiConLX (formerly #MarTechFest) was born. We have since added a whole range of ways to help our community better understand all things martech and marketing ops and build their careers and companies.

Today we provide events, courses and resources to serve our growing community. From our flagship, in-person anti-conference and exclusive, fine-dining dinners, to online DialUps and WebSeshs, we offer amazing learning and networking experiences across the whole events spectrum.

We also provide certified digital learning courses and corporate digital academies, as well as a library of resources.

You didn’t think we were going to stop there, did you?

On 7th April 2022, henceforth known as “LXA Day,” we renamed ourselves from MarTech Alliance to LXA and created three interconnecting tribes:

  • MarTech – Marketers, MOPs & martech specialists
  • SalesTech – Sales, SOPs & Growth/Revenue officers
  • NextTech - Innovation, Transformation & Digital officers
From the depths of SalesTech, to the futuristic world of NextTech and of course, continuing to lead the way in MarTech. We’ve got more channels, more experts and more learning experiences than ever before to help our community keep upgrading their skills, knowledge and network.

However you like to learn, let's #KeepUpgrading together.

 

Meet the A team.

We pity the fool who doesn’t love martech as much as we do.
