IAC21 – Emergence

April 28 to April 30, 2021

We have a unique opportunity to ascend from the destruction, fear, and uncertainty of 2020 and forge a new vision for our community. Working together, we can emerge stronger, better, and more open-minded—but the prospect is risky. And success is not guaranteed. 

IAC21 is a 3-day event about all things information architecture. With pre-conference workshops the week prior and three days of talks, you’ll walk away with practical takeaways and inspiration to take your learning to a new level of understanding.

In 2021, we will be online: attend from anywhere in the world.
