At the 11th annual Fast Company Innovation Festival, the ideas flowed as fast as the conversations:
🟠 AARP CEO Dr. Myechia Minter-Jordan reminded us the nonprofit is “not your grandmother’s AARP.”
🔵 Tracee Ellis Ross shared the joy of solo travel through the lens of her new Roku show.
🟠 Duolingo CEO Luis von Ahn explained why people come to the app to learn, not to have things done for them.
🔵 ACLU leaders urged corporate America to stand firm against government overreach.

In four inspiring days of #FCFestival, we brought together:
🌎 2,500+ attendees from around the globe
📣 125+ panels, talks, and Fast Tracks featuring leading voices in areas like work life, brand marketing, generative AI, founding businesses, and cultural storytelling
📓 12+ interactive workshops tackling mental health at work, the AI productivity paradox, and leading in the age of anxiety
🥘 5 Taste of Innovation dinners featuring Sofreh Cafe, Metropolis, Manhatta, The Bazaar, and Naks

At its core, the festival is about community, connection, and conversations that spark change. None of it would have been possible without our speakers, attendees, sponsors, partners, staff—and you.

P.S. Tickets for the 2026 Festival are already live and at the link in bio.

See you next year!
