Innovation Showcase

Please consider submitting a proposal on an innovation in your department/work you've done in your department, highlighting new or creative ideas that other departments can learn from and apply in their own institutions. Through the Innovations Showcase, we hope to capture and share new or creative ideas that other departments can learn from and apply in their own institutions across any of a department's mission areas or operations.

We anticipate that the Innovation Showcase sessions will take place on Wednesday (2/24) or Friday (2/26) of the conference.

Deadline to Apply: September 7, 2026

Please note: If you are selected to present in an Innovation Showcase, you will be required to register for the conference. 

ADFM Staff will notify applicants of their application status by October 9, 2026. 

Breakfast Table Topics

The topics for these discussion tables can be specific (e.g. something you are doing in your department that you want to share), general (e.g. open discussion of a topic), or focused on networking. As a facilitator of the discussion topic, you would host two separate groups, 45 minutes allotted for each, during the breakfast hour on Wednesday, February 24, 2027.

Deadline to Apply: October 26, 2026
