CONGRESS / SPEAKERS & SPONSORS

EVERY
VOICE IN
THE ROOM

Around 90 speakers from more than 30 countries, and the companies building what they talk about. Both are on the same floor all week — the trick is knowing who to find

SPEAKERS

The people
you flew in
to hear.

A World Congress stage is deliberately mixed: chief executives running century-old mastheads next to the people building the tools that will replace half their stack. No vendor pitches, no panels full of savvying the same thing. Every session is chosen by the INMA community — with rooms that will numbers and are expected to take questions. You will hear what did not work as often as what did.

FLOOR MAP · THE TIMESCENTER

Where to find
everyone to talk to.

Worth stopping: these are the teams shipping the tools you are about to be asked to buy or replace. Ten minutes at a table gets you a straight answer on what their product actually does, what it costs, and which of your peers already run it — the conversation that takes six weeks of emails at home.
