  • Growing Stronger Together: Energizing Our EventTech & AI Community in 2026

    Hello to Our Incredible EventTech & AI Community Members!

    As we close out a successful 2025 for the EventTech & AI Innovation Community, I’m thrilled to share that our membership grew by over 12% this year. This continued momentum reflects the passion, curiosity, and collaboration that each of you brings to this forum. Thank you for being an essential part of this community and for contributing your expertise, ideas, and energy throughout the year.

    Looking ahead, 2026 is shaping up to be our most dynamic year yet!! We’re planning a series of new networking and learning opportunities designed to keep you at the forefront of emerging technology in the events industry.

    Highlights will include:

    ·        Collaborative programs with other MPI Online Communities - Bringing broader perspectives and deeper cross-industry insights.

    ·        EventTech and AI demo sessions - Showcasing innovative tools, platforms, and solutions reshaping our industry.

    ·        Expanded peer-to-peer connection opportunities - More spaces to share best practices, challenges, and wins with fellow professionals.

    If you are interested in hosting a demo, sharing a case study, or leading a topic discussion, I’d love to hear from you. We are actively scheduling contributors for 2026 and welcome voices from all areas of event technology and AI.

    Thank you again for an outstanding year. I look forward to learning, sharing, and innovating with all of you in 2026!
