Unparalleled Value
Another great year at the Fitness Technology Summit. I especially liked the variety of the content ranging from macro industry dynamics to focused technical reviews, and as always networking with industry peers and experts was invaluable.
Debbie Fiorella
[Chief Technology and Digital Officer]The Fitness Technology Summit sets itself apart as one of the most relevant and actionable events in our industry. The sessions are curated with intention - industry experts talking about real-world examples and not just sales pitches or tech theory. This is the optimal event for tech and digital marketing networking with a more close-knit feel and events that drive engagement between members.
Jason Breazeale
[VP of Technology]The Fitness Technology Summit is a must-attend event for our CTO, and senior IT and marketing teams. Understanding shifting member behaviors, improving how we manage teams, and making smarter use of the technology we already have—these are real conversations we’re having every day. Every year, the Summit gets better—and the time invested in attending is absolutely worth it.
Greta Wagner
[ED/EVP – CPAC, SVP]This is, without a doubt, one of the most valuable events in the fitness industry. It’s a space where fitness tech startups can showcase cutting-edge solutions, where industry veterans and newcomers alike can push boundaries, challenge the status quo, and feel supported in doing so. The energy is collaborative, not competitive—which can be rare in this space. Whether you're there to find solutions, spark new ideas, or simply connect with like-minded professionals who believe in the future of fitness, the Fitness Technology Summit delivers every time.
Troy Macfarland
[Director of Marketing]The Fitness Technology Summit continues to be one of the most valuable events in fitness. Its more intimate size creates space for deeper conversations around key topics, industry opportunities, and shared challenges, and makes networking feel more authentic and meaningful. I always leave with fresh ideas and stronger connections.
