Mitratech Interact 2026, PHOENIX

October 5–8, 2026 | Arizona Grand Resort & Spa | Phoenix, Arizona

Interact 2026 is Mitratech’s flagship U.S. technology expo and user conference, bringing together professionals across legal operations and claims, risk and compliance, human resources, and enterprise technology. The event is designed as a forum where Mitratech customers, partners, product specialists, industry experts, and business leaders can examine emerging challenges, exchange practical experience, and explore how technology can support more connected and effective organizational operations.

The conference combines thought-leadership sessions with hands-on product workshops, training, user groups, technology demonstrations, product strategy discussions, and roadmap previews. Programming is expected to address cross-functional topics including artificial intelligence, compliance, leadership, workflow automation, emerging technology, operational improvement, and organizational change. The ongoing MitraTECH Expo provides attendees with opportunities to view product demonstrations, explore recent and upcoming capabilities, and engage directly with Mitratech specialists about specific operational, implementation, and technology challenges.

For attendees, Interact offers an opportunity to strengthen product knowledge, build practical skills, identify ways to improve technology adoption and return on investment, and learn how peer organizations are responding to evolving legal, workforce, risk, and compliance requirements. Networking receptions, workshops, peer presentations, and community discussions also enable participants to build relationships across the Mitratech customer and partner ecosystem and bring new strategies, practices, and ideas back to their organizations. Registration includes approximately two and a half days of conference programming, access to the technology expo, and the opening and closing receptions.

GRC 20/20 Attendee & Presenter . . .

If you ask my family what I do for a living, they might say that I “travel the world talking about risk.” And honestly, that wouldn’t be far from the truth. But the more formal introduction is that I am an analyst, researcher, storyteller, and, as the industry likes to remind me, the Father of GRC. More than 23 years ago, while at Forrester Research, I coined the acronym GRC and articulated it as a way to integrate governance, risk management, and compliance capabilities in strategy, process, and technology.

Today, through GRC 20/20 Research, I spend my days studying how organizations around the world navigate complexity and uncertainty. My job is to observe patterns, identify challenges, understand how strategy, process, and technology intersect, and help organizations evolve to be more effective, efficient, resilient, and agile. Along the way, I also founded GRC Report, a global news and insights platform focused entirely on governance, risk management, compliance, and business integrity news and insights around the world. It has become a place where practitioners, executives, policymakers, and technologists can see the GRC landscape through a global lens.

I also host two podcasts — Risk Is Our Business Podcast and Hitchhiker’s Guide to the GRC Technology Galaxy Podcast — because I believe conversation is one of the most powerful tools we have for changing how people think about risk and integrity. These podcasts allow me to explore big ideas with remarkable minds from around the world, and they keep me grounded in the reality that risk is not merely a function — it is the fabric of every decision and every ambition. In many ways, I am an explorer of uncertainty. As an industry analyst, I map and monitor the ever-expanding GRC galaxy — now tracking over 1,500 solutions and the professional services orbiting them. The universe of GRC is vast, dynamic, and constantly in motion, and I am endlessly fascinated by how organizations chart their course through it.
