  • Welcome to the Net Inclusion 2027 Breakout Session Proposal submission process. NDIA understands and appreciates our ever-growing and evolving community. We are committed to providing a space where everyone can access the latest digital equity and inclusion innovations. We want to ensure that Net Inclusion remains a place where information and resources are relevant to all who attend.

    Breakout Sessions are 60-minute sessions offered on days 2 and 3 of our three-day conference. If you have an idea for a breakout session, please complete this form and submit it by midnight PST Monday, June 29, 2026. We are excited to see what the best minds in the field of digital equity and inclusion propose to share with the Net Inclusion community! After the NDIA and Net Inclusion National Planning Team conduct reviews, we will notify you by August 14, 2026, if your proposal has been accepted.

    NDIA will host a one-hour Breakout Session and Workshop Informational Session on Thursday, May 14, at 11:00 AM PT/2:00 PM ET - Registration Link. Additionally, you can find the link to our FAQ here. This meeting will be recorded, and FAQs will be updated.
