About this conference
Meaningful change in K--12 requires three things working together: novel ideas, capital to bring them to life, and school leaders ready to implement them. When one piece is missing, even the best solutions fail to reach classrooms. IEI National Summits bring together K--12 mission-driven organizations, superintendents and cabinet level district leaders to build what none of them can build alone. District leaders get direct access to vetted partners, peer insight and thoughtfully curated professional development. EdTech partners get honest, ground-level feedback and real pathways to adoption. IEI events are built to feel personal and genuinely supportive. We focus on thoughtful planning and small-group settings so district leaders and partners can learn from one another without pressure or distraction. Attendees often describe our summits as a comfortable blend of professional development, honest conversation, networking, and a bit of fun. Partners tell us the intimate scale and non-commercial approach make it easier to have meaningful dialogue with district leaders. Many leave feeling renewed, valued, and excited to return.
Sponsorship options
Partnership opportunities are available for Industry Leaders and Partners. IEI offers a team genuinely invested in the partner's success, helping to build the right relationships and have the right conversations. This includes supporting presence at every stage (before, during, and after the event) through multiple touchpoints such as dedicated meeting sessions, shared meals, roundtable discussions, and workshops. The focus is on making the right connections through targeted outreach, warm introductions, and real-time support to ensure partners engage with district leaders effectively.
