2026 Tech Expo Recap: Innovation, Insights, and Real Solutions
Over the past month, our Tech Expos in Columbus, Ohio, and Lansing, Michigan, brought together a vibrant mix of customers, partners, and industry experts—all eager to share, learn, and explore the future of business technology. Both events were a tremendous success, thanks to the energy, curiosity, and openness of everyone who participated.
Thank you to all who made these events possible, and for those who couldn’t join us—here’s a look at what you missed and how you can still get involved.
Tools and Solutions You Can Use
This year’s events were designed for learning, not sales pitches. Attendees explored the newest solutions for stopping robocalls and spoofed spam—TNS’s call blocking was a clear attendee favorite. Many organizations face challenges in this area, and the hands-on demos offered real strategies to tackle them.
The Power & Practicality of AI
AI stole plenty of headlines, but our focus was on how organizations can actually use it—today. From infrastructure efficiency to real-world cybersecurity, our speakers and demos covered what it means to get AI-ready and when it makes sense to invest. Attendees left with a better understanding of how to use AI to optimize budgets, streamline operations, and decide if or when AI fits their business.
Cybersecurity, Governance, and Protecting What Matters
With cyber threats on the rise, safeguarding your data and infrastructure has never been more important. This year, our sessions didn’t just focus on the latest tools to minimize risk—they also explored the topic of governance in cybersecurity and AI.
We discussed how having a strong governance framework helps organizations use technology securely, responsibly, and with clear accountability. Attendees gained practical guidance not just on defense, but also on building the right policies and oversight to support safe, ethical use of both cybersecurity tools and AI.
Comparing UCaaS Solutions—Your Way
Another highlight was the unique opportunity to compare major UCaaS platforms side by side, without sales pressure or hard pitches. Whether exploring options for the first time or looking to validate a current direction, guests got the candid insights and practical knowledge needed to make informed choices for their teams.
Data-Driven Decisions: Advanced Reporting & Analytics
Cutting-edge reporting and analytics tools were on display, showing how to track performance, identify trends, and plan smarter for the future—helping businesses make sense of their data and turn insights into action.
What Customers Are Saying
One theme echoed throughout the feedback: these expos are as educational as they are approachable. Attendees told us they gained actionable knowledge and tools they could implement right away—with no pressure, just real value.
You’ll be seeing testimonials and event videos soon, so you can hear stories directly from attendees in their own words.
