Thank You for Making SBS26 a Huge Success!

Symposium by the Sea 2026 was attended by over 300 EM professionals and 46 sponsors and exhibitors! It was an incredible celebration of growth, connection, and community. Whether you joined us in person or supported from afar, we want to thank you, our members, for being part of what made this year a success!

Your continued engagement and support are what drive the SBS community forward. Over four incredible days, you took part in committee meetings, thought-provoking lectures, exciting competitions, and countless moments of collaboration and inspiration that reminded us why this community is so special.

SBS26 was more than just an event — it was a testament to what we can achieve together. We’re energized for what’s ahead and look forward to continuing to grow with you.
