OEB is special because the discussions are very sensible, grounded, rich.

OEB is an exciting edtech conference, very well organized and hosted in a great city. It's a fine way to learn, share, and network, especially in the European setting.

This seems to be the only conference attended by pretty much all the current stakeholders across the Higher Education ecosystem: academics, non-governmental organisations, government, professionals and a wide range of companies across the student experience cycle.

I think OEB is an incredible conference; it really brings together everybody working in this domain of digital education - people doing research, building tools, teachers, small companies, big companies. It's a fabulous meeting ground.
