The ORR Technology & Innovation Summit was more than just a meeting—it was a high-stakes engine for collaboration amongst an influential cohort of business executives, policymakers and technology leaders in the heart of our nation's captial. Their mission: to redefine how innovation can expand access, sharpen information and spark participation across America’s iconic public lands and waters. Our mission: to turn a policy conversation into a solution-driven summit which would design the roadmap for how emerging technology will drive accessibility, sustainability and robust growth within a thriving outdoor recreation economy.
Leveraging our deep expertise in D.C. programming, we helped shape an event experience designed to bridge government, industry, and innovation. Our team recommended and secured key government participation to ensure high-level bipartisan engagement, including Secretary of the Interior Doug Burgum, Senator John Hickenlooper, Chairman Bruce Westerman, and ORR President Jessica Turner.
Through live demos, panel discussions, and fireside conversations, the Summit created space for actionable dialogue across sectors. By bringing together policymakers, entrepreneurs, and outdoor recreation leaders in one room, the event helped strengthen the partnerships and innovation pipelines needed to deliver better outdoor experiences across America’s public lands.
