Peer-to-peer learning is one of the reasons Cvent CONNECT feels so valuable year after year, and with Cvent CONNECT 2026 coming up fast on July 13–16 in Nashville, now is the perfect time to start thinking about the conversations you want to have before the event, during the event, and after the event in Community User Groups. Community Conversations are built for exactly that - interactive, discussion-based sessions designed to spark peer-to-peer learning, practical idea sharing, and meaningful networking, with the conversation continuing well beyond Cvent CONNECT itself.
Community Conversations currently included in the Cvent CONNECT agenda include:
-

If you're planning your Cvent CONNECT agenda, Community Conversations are a great place to learn from peers in the room, make connections onsite, and keep those discussions going in Cvent Community long after Cvent CONNECT wraps. Be sure to register for the Community Conversations at Cvent CONNECT to exchange practical ideas, hear real customer perspectives, and build relationships that can keep supporting you long after the event ends. And don't wait until July to start connecting - join the conversation now in the Community User Groups to meet peers, swap advice, and head into Cvent CONNECT already feeling part of the community. Then, when you get to Cvent CONNECT, you'll have the fun of putting faces to names and meeting some of those community connections in person.
