ARIS Summit 2026: A Three-Day Virtual Research Impact Conference
In 2026, ARIS Summit attendees enjoyed in-depth and thought-provoking keynotes, panel discussions, presentations, and poster and breakout sessions. There were also designated times for networking with global colleagues including chancellors, researchers, practitioners, and foundation executives. Attendees were people of all experience levels, from graduate students and early career professionals to mid-career leaders to seasoned experts.
Theme: Impact by Design
ARIS Summit 2026 theme meant talking about your work and its impact. It was about showing your results — what changed, for whom, and why it matters.
Whether they were a researcher, practitioner, partner, administrator, or funder, attendees left with practical approaches to immediately apply and connections to build on all year.
For those who have been able to attend an ARIS Summit in-person, one of the best features and opportunities of the summits is our community. We made sure the virtual Summit 2026 focused on making the welcoming, engaging, and sharing community that you experience in-person too.
