Valencia 2026 Highlights
What Participants Said
What an incredible event! It was truly invigorating to be surrounded by such an extraordinary group of people from all areas of international education, whose knowledge and passion is nothing short of inspiring. I am in awe of how effectively the SRT team has fostered an ever-growing community of professionals in recent years without losing their deeply human touch.
For its first conference, SRT brought together the right people. The combination of thoughtful matchmaking, a welcoming atmosphere, and a smaller setting created space for meaningful conversations that are often difficult to have at larger events. I left with stronger relationships and fresh perspectives.
The standards of this event are incredibly high. It is actually quite rare nowadays to find this level of care, even at premium B2B events you pay a lot of money for. The size of the conference is absolutely perfect. My favourite conference by far!

FAQs
How many 1:1 meetings will I have?
You will have up to 20 pre-scheduled, 20-minute meetings with leading international school counselors. While you can select your preferred choices, we guarantee up to an 80% match rate based on your requests. Additional networking opportunities are available during all scheduled meals, coffee breaks, and evening social gatherings.
How do I schedule my meetings? Do I need a specific app?
No app download is required. We use Marcom, a web-based platform, as your central hub. Prior to the event, you will log into Marcom to build your university profile, browse the counselor directory, and submit your 1:1 meeting requests.
When does the meeting scheduling open?
The Marcom platform will open a few weeks prior to the event for you to set up your profile and browse counselors. It will then briefly close and reopen for you to send and accept meeting requests. Final schedules will be released fulfilling up to an 80% match rate based on your choices, giving you plenty of time to finalize your schedule before arriving.
How will I keep track of my schedule on-site?
Your complete personalized itinerary—including your 1:1 meetings, workshops, panels, and social events—will be easily accessible via the Marcom platform on your mobile device throughout the entire event.
Will I get access to the counselor contact details after the event?
Yes. Your university profile will be visible to participants throughout the event, and you will retain full access to the platform and the complete counselor directory for one entire month after the In-Conference concludes. This makes post-event follow-ups seamless.
Can I distribute marketing materials?
Absolutely. You are welcome to bring physical brochures, viewbooks, and business cards for your 1:1 meetings and the University Fair on March 3rd. We also highly recommend uploading digital copies of your marketing materials to your Marcom profile so counselors can easily download them.
What type of sessions can my university participate in?
The In-Conference features collaborative panels, workshops, and roundtables where universities and counselors discuss modern admissions challenges and emerging global trends. If you want a more prominent speaking role, we offer premium sponsorship packages that allow you to host your own dedicated thought-leadership session.
What happens during the University Fair on March 3rd?
While the first two days focus heavily on strategic 1:1 meetings and professional development, the final day features a dedicated University Fair. Hosted by King's College School, Cascais, the fair will welcome over 200 parents and students from the school and is also open to external visitors. It provides a dynamic, open-format environment to showcase your academic pathways to a wider audience and solidify the connections you've made.
