What this conference is all about
This is a thoughtfully curated, informative conference that provides you with a forum to 1) learn practical insights from experts; and 2) meet with key leaders.
You will walk away with actionable insights to bring back to your company. And, you'll actually have fun!
GEO Conference is the official conference on the topic of Generative Engine Optimization.
This full-day conference is dedicated to understanding “AI SEO” aka Generative Engine Optimization (GEO).
How do you show up in AI-generated results like ChatGPT, Claude, and Gemini?
The science. The proof. The stories.
Join hundreds of leaders from world-class companies like OpenAI, Google, Etsy, L'Oreal, Comcast, Anthropic, Adobe, Accenture, and more.
Past attendees have also included organizations from academia, nonprofit, and religious institutions like the University of California, Church of Latter-Day Saints, and Wikimedia Foundation.
This is a highly-valuable gathering of marketing leaders, SEO experts, managers, tech experts, digital marketers, and business owners to talk about the future of search.
Together, we'll unpack the "SEO of AI".
There are two tracks (Marketing + Technical) in two separate rooms. We recommend your company sends at least two people to divide & conquer.
For instance, a 'Content Marketer' or 'SEO Strategist' should attend the Marketing Track and a 'Technical SEO Analyst' or 'Software Developer' should attend the Technical Track.
This isn't your traditional trade show.
Do not expect sales booths and thousands of people.
No fluff. No filler. No vendors. No flashy booths. No theatrics.
Just real people talking & solving real problems in AI-driven search.
This conference is for operators, strategists, practitioners, and builders who want to stay ahead of the algorithm.
If you care about visibility for your products/services in the AI age, come join us.
