We are building the eSummit as a forward-looking, aspirational event one that inspires attendees and allows them to take home real, practical solutions they can apply from day one. While some historical context is necessary, our focus isn’t on past failures. Instead, we’re highlighting progress, innovation, and real-world success stories that are moving the industry forward.

eSummit's three-day structure brings together different audiences with unique perspectives and priorities. We've designed each day to address specific needs, from operational solutions to strategic vision to collaborative innovation. Use the guide below to better understand each day's primary audience. While there will be a variety of attendees in every session, these outlines may help you prepare the most impactful content for your audience.
