The summit is at JW Marriott Washington, DC, in Washington, DC.
The listed audience includes search, IT, departmental, information and knowledge, compliance, and legal professionals.
It is most useful for search managers, knowledge architects and IT managers who run or plan enterprise search projects, since the three-day program covers designing, building and managing search and discovery, including AI-driven and agentic approaches, with speakers from Squirro and eGain. Readers looking for a general AI event or a broad vendor expo would get less, as the focus is on search relevance, accuracy and speed.
Attendees at technology and information management conferences in Washington usually wear business casual, with some in suits given the compliance and legal attendees. A coat is useful for Washington in mid-November.
