Episode 301: Why IMAGE ’26 Is Built Around Connection

"It helps to see the bigger picture, to get out of your own sphere of interest. So it can be a good way to see different angles of your own industry.”

Applied geoscience is becoming more connected as carbon management, geothermal, digital technology, near surface work, and traditional energy increasingly share the same tools, ideas, and challenges. Molly Turko and Edith Miller explain how IMAGE ’26 is adapting to that shift while trying to serve both specialists and attendees exploring beyond their usual areas. They discuss how the event’s hubs, pavilions, technical sessions, and shared spaces can help people find useful ideas without becoming overwhelmed by the size of the program.
