Last month, FACTS hosted our 11th annual Elevate conference at the Hyatt Regency in Dallas, Texas. After a two-year hiatus due to COVID-19, we were excited to host the largest event in Elevate history, with over 1,230 attendees. This was also the first year that we offered Pre-Conference workshops that provided a deep dive into our products for new users, as well as our Expert Bar and Exhibit Hall that showcased our Platinum Sponsor, 5 Major Sponsors, and 12 Exhibitors.
This year’s theme was Building What’s Next and focused on thought leadership, innovation, and building new ideas and relationships to face the challenges of the next generation. Attendees enjoyed nearly 200 sessions, covering a wide range of topics including everything from Application & Enrollment best practices to digital marketing. There were also mainstage sessions from keynote speaker Angela Maiers, FACTS President Scott Spethman, and Director of Product Strategy Jeremy Penner. Combined with an exciting reception at the Reunion Tower GeO-Deck, the soft launch of our new community platform FACTS^SPACE, and exciting giveaways, it’s safe to say Elevate 2022 was a success!
We’ve already had tons of great feedback from attendees and can’t wait to start planning how to make next year’s event in Orlando even better. Read on for some photo highlights from this exciting week in Dallas!
