CMX Summit 2026: An Immersive Experience for the Future of Community
CMX Summit is back — and 2026 is different.
Community is evolving fast.
AI is reshaping discovery and engagement.
Leaders are asking harder ROI questions.
And the expectations on community teams are higher than ever.
So we’re reshaping the Summit to reflect this moment.
CMX Summit 2026 isn’t just a conference you attend — it’s a two-day, fully immersive experience built for community leaders who want to stay relevant, credible, and impactful in an AI-influenced world.
What to Expect
✨ High-impact, rapid-fire keynotes
Focused. Practical. Energizing. No filler — just real frameworks and measurable impact.
🔥 Spicier hot takes + live breakout discussions
Bold ideas. Real debate. Audience participation built in.
🛠 Hands-on workshops
Tactical sessions you can apply immediately — from AI to events to knowledge strategy.
🎤 A new debate format on where community is headed
Big questions. Different perspectives. No safe answers.
💬 An (also brand new!) unconference session
Because some of the most important conversations can’t be scripted.
🍽 Shared meals + on-site experiences
We’re keeping the group intentionally intimate and the conversations flowing — lunch and dinner together, no disappearing into the city between sessions.
🎉 Evening celebrations (yes, karaoke will be making a return!)
This Year’s Focus
