2024 Forum Attendee Policy

OPEX/TECH26 Attendee Policy


Thank you for your interest in NAEM’s OPEX/TECH26 conference. Every year, NAEM limits consultant and service provider attendance so that there are more buyers than sellers at our events. As such, all partners are limited to the number of registrations that come with their partnerships.

However, NAEM has added the following perks to honor NAEM’s highest-level 2026 partners:
  • All but one level session partners have the option to purchase one additional registration for anyone at their company and/or their speaker to attend this year’s OPEX/TECH26 events.
  • NAEM is offering Educational Development registrations:
    • All 2026 Session/Terabyte and Gigabyte Partners now have the option to purchase an additional registration for their non-sales and Next Gen colleagues to attend OPEX/TECH26 for educational purposes. These attendees are not permitted to stand at their company’s booths or engage in sales activities at the event but are encouraged to attend all conference sessions and networking events for career development purposes. Please email programs@naem.org to make this purchase.
At this time, there is not an option for service providers or consultants to attend OPEX/TECH26 without sponsoring, but we will be offering Affiliate Council members a limited number of registrations to purchase during Member Appreciation Week.
