Large-Group Discussions

We’ll gather round in a big circle to deep dive on key topics. These are discussions, not lectures. This is a great opportunity to explore tough questions, share experiences, and get help with specific challenges you’re facing.

Expert Panels

Hear diverse perspectives on critical issues, allowing you to understand different approaches and gather comprehensive insights. Panel discussions often invite questions, making it a collaborative and interactive session.

Peer-Led Vendor Clinics

Open, peer-led discussions where you can find workarounds and share successes (and frustrations) with the platform or tool integral to your program’s success.

We are a vendor-free community, so these clinics are a special opportunity to dig-in, ask tough questions, and get candid feedback from other brands who use the tool — not a sales pitch.

Networking Meal Discussions

Our meals aren’t just breaks, they’re a substantive part of the meeting experience where some of the best conversations happen. Most meetings include breakfast, lunch, and dinner as official parts of the program.

Private Founders Dinner

Join fellow AEO Board Founding Members for an exclusive dinner to unwind, relax, and connect in a more informal setting. This private dinner offers a unique opportunity to build deeper relationships, share experiences, and engage in meaningful conversations with peers outside of the structured sessions, fostering lasting connections.
