Happy Friday evening, FPAW Fanatics.
The Spring 2026 FPAW Meeting is coming together nicely, with 127 attendees having eagerly registered for the meeting. There are at least 13 more presenters/panelists that will be signing up in the coming days, and I anticipate that our final count will be somewhere between 160-180 participants.
The leads have been sharpening their programs, engaging premiere presenters and panelists in each of their sessions, as reflected in the updated agenda on the meeting website. Our excellent Oklahoma State University hosts, Gus de Azevedo, Jamey Jacob and Trinity Patton, are finalizing their first-class meeting arrangements - it seems obvious to me that they're intent on raising the FPAW Meeting logistics bar to another level.
Given the above, there's clearly only one big thing missing - YOU!
So, register for the meeting. Although we'd love for you to be there in person, you can always opt for remote participation. And, unlike almost every other industry conference out there, do I need to remind you that attending FPAW meetings, and becoming an FPAW member, are totally, completely FREE?
Join us. We look forward to seeing/hearing you.
