Orbital rates this event Bronze.

Inspire26 earns a Bronze rating based on attendee quality, exhibitor ROI, and relevance to the restaurant industry. A solid regional option for teams focused on the restaurant market.

Inspire26 is Agilysys's annual user conference for restaurant and hospitality operators, drawing between 500 and 1,000 attendees focused on getting more out of their technology investments. The event runs April 20 through 22, 2026, in Houston, TX, and sits squarely in the growth and revenue space, meaning sessions and conversations tend to center on driving covers, increasing spend, and improving operational output rather than back-office fundamentals. At this scale, it's large enough to surface meaningful vendor and peer connections without losing the focus that comes with a tighter audience. Restaurant operators already running Agilysys products will find the most value here, though suppliers and technology partners looking to reach that buyer profile have a reasonable case for attending as well.
