We heard you loud and clear! The AWE community is eager to engage with and elevate the conference experience with great ideas like XR apps, community gatherings and support for job seekers. Use this page to learn about ways you can contribute to AWE events and fill out the form below to share your ideas for activations, meetups, and more.

What we’re looking for:

• Ideas that build on our 2024 theme "Breakthrough"
• XR Apps & Experiences
• Meetups & Networking
• Jobs & Skill Building
• Other Great Ideas

How it works:
You bring the great ideas and apps—we’ll help you showcase your XR event tech or community gathering as part of the official AWE conference experience. We’ll work with activation partners to ensure you have space, visibility, and marketing coverage for a great event. AWE will review all proposals for activations on a first-come, first-served basis.

Open, accessible activations and experiences that are aligned with AWE’s goals for in-person events will be selected, at AWE’s discretion, on the merit of their idea and the partner’s ability to deliver their proposed activation in the required timeframe. Except in rare cases, apps should cross-platform or web-based to be considered.

What you get:
As contributors to an AWE event, activation partners may receive: free passes to AWE, reserved times and spaces at AWE events, listings on events calendars, marketing support, and the chance to connect with and delight a community of thousands of XR pros and enthusiasts.
