Drew and Ben caught up in May 2023 to pick up a conversation they started in London in 2022 at a conference where Drew, head of experience at Braindate, was leading the Braindate experience that Ben participated in at EdtechX..
Drew is based in Montreal and we caught him between travel to find out more about his role with Braindate alongside his freelance facilitation, community dance projects and his former roles as an entrepreneur in the Yoga and wellness space.
