A revised, scaled-down 2026 publishing summit will still take place this summer at the Royal Marine Hotel during the originally scheduled dates. This smaller, more intimate gathering will bring together our publishing partner, Springer Nature, editors for ETR&D and TechTrends, and up to 20 participants for focused conversations around publishing-related issues and the continued development of the 2027 Summit.

While this is a change from the original 2026 event format, the revised summit provides a meaningful opportunity for more personalized interaction with AECT editors, publishing leaders, and Springer Nature.

Members who are interested in participating in the revised 2026 gathering are invited to contact AECT at aect@aect.org for additional details and registration information. Please email us no later than Friday, May 15.
