DMV Digital Navigator Summit 2026

The DMV Digital Navigator Summit is an annual gathering for digital navigators, tech helpers, and digital inclusion advocates working to directly support DC, Maryland, and Virginia residents in confidently accessing and navigating life online. The focus is on the practical hands-on work, be it in adult education, workforce development, libraries, upskilling communities, or otherwise. Last year was our inaugural summit, with over 100 participants from 50+ different organizations. This year, we're thinking about how we can share resources, skills, and ideas regionally in order to strengthen our work in a sustainable way, even when our resources are limited. What you can expect: A day of connecting with other practitioners and building skills with the goal of strengthening our network, with several opportunities for you to share about your work: Inspiring opening and closing sessions, Two 90-minute interactive breakout blocks led by practitioners on our network, Lunch time 'hot takes' competition, A full hour for resource exchange + networking. This is a free, all-day event including breakfast, lunch, and refreshments. This event is made possible by the generous support of the DC Public Library Foundation and the Comcast NBCUniversal Foundation.
