Here are the IG/RM/DM/AI-related industry events and webinars I'm aware of for October 16 - January 31, 2027. I don't have anything to do with any of these from a planning perspective, so please reach out to the individual event producers with any questions.
Vendors, other associations, consultants, etc., your events are all welcome as long as the event is educational and not completely self-serving, e.g., no demos. If you are interested in listing your solution-specific webinar or event, please contact me about placing and highlighting your event. I also generally don't include purely social events with no educational component, or book review sessions.
If you know of a webinar or other event during this period that is focused on IG, RM, DM, AI, etc. that's not listed, let me know here or at jwilkins13@gmail.com.
No charge to list your (educational) event or to access the list.
