IAN Meeting - Fall 2025 - Palm Springs
Welcome to the Fall 2025 IAN Meeting!
We’re excited to gather with you all in a place that embodies both escape and inspiration. From artists to visionaries and entrepreneurs, Palm Springs has long been a destination for those seeking renewal and looking for space to breathe, think, and create.
Surrounded by desert, this city thrives as an oasis of culture, design, and daring ideas. It’s proof that independence isn’t just about survival, it’s about carving out beauty, opportunity, and momentum even in the toughest environments.
Over the next few days, we’ll do just that together. We’ll celebrate the wins, unpack the hard stuff, and lean on one another in ways only independent agencies can. Here’s to leaving refreshed, refocused, and ready for whatever comes next.
See you under the palms!
