This page covers seven events selected for their networking value, from regional gatherings to national meetings that bring operators, entomologists, and industry advocates together. The National Conference on Urban Entomology in Atlanta draws a research-forward crowd that's useful if you work in commercial or municipal accounts. The GPCA Athens Winter Conference is a strong early-year option for Southeast operators who want face time with peers before the busy season starts. Several events here also serve niche audiences, including a dedicated Women's Forum in Barcelona for those building international connections. If your goal for 2026 is finding the right rooms to be in, rather than just collecting CEUs, these are the events worth putting on your calendar first.
