Activity by year
Three measures on one year axis; each panel has its own scale. 2027, 2028 is still mostly ahead, so its bars are faded and incomplete.
Conferences present at
Distinct conferences each year, split by whether the company sponsored or only had speakers there.
- Sponsored
- Speakers only
Distinct speakers
People from this company on a program that year, each counted once.

Where they've grown or pulled back
Sponsored 1 conference in 2026, the first year on record.
Counted per conference. 2026 is the latest year whose conferences have mostly happened. Tiers use the best tier each year; swatches show the path, oldest first. A conference counts as pulled out only when a later event published a complete sponsor list, since most events don’t say whether their list is complete.
Lookalikes
Companies with the most similar conference footprint: they sponsor and speak at the same conferences. Bars are cosine similarity, from 0 (nothing shared) to 1 (identical).
