VINE 2026 – Tech Talk

April 15 @ 9:00 am - 4:00 pm

VINE Tech Talk is a collaborative day for school tech staff to connect, share insights, and explore emerging trends in the school IT sphere. The event features a mix of keynote presentations, real‑world case studies, and panel discussions focused on topics such as processor platforms (Intel vs Snapdragon), implementation experiences of Windows Arm (Snapdragon) devices into schools, server infrastructure comparisons between on‑prem and cloud (including VMWare alternatives), a passwordless authentication story, and modern device security methods.

Alongside technical sessions, attendees will have opportunities to engage with sponsors, tour the campus, participate in the VINE AGM, and network with peers, before the day concludes with a VINE door prize giveaway.
