Building on the energy and success of prior GridFWD events

GridFWD 2024 will continue to build and enhance the high quality content and energy of our well-known model - big enough to attract industry leaders and not too big for valuable face-face conversations. Attendees will have multiple ways to meet up with others, learn new ideas and best practices, and discuss important topics with peers.

A dynamic balance of presentation content and personal connection

Grid Forward is planning a range of sessions and activities over the two days to help attendees achieve their
goals for rebuilding connections and driving new initiatives.

  • EXPERT PANELS AND CASE STUDIES: GridFWD 2024 will play host to some of the leading experts in market structures and modernization from the U.S. and Canada, plus our dynamic Transformation Today case studies.
  • HUDDLE DISCUSSIONS: With so many industry issues and opportunities, GridFWD 2024 will offer a wide range of smallgroup discussions for sharing best practices and answering questions.
  • GRID INNOVATION PITCH CONTEST: We will once again host our Grid Innovation Pitch Competition, with a special focus on technology as the foundation for modern markets. Competitors will vie in front of our audience for substantial awards.
  • SOCIALS & NETWORKING: GridFWD events are planned for the maximum amount of connections and conversations, providing value for all attendees and a chance to relax and reflect on the intense amount of information available.
  • CONFERENCE CONNECTOR ACTIVITIES: As we did in GridFWD 2023, Grid Forward is organizing sponsored activities during the course of the event that will inform, revitalize and connect our participants in ways unique to the region.
