Join us at Merge 2026 on May 11th in Grand Rapids, MI for a day of insightful talks and networking!

Merge is the conference where technology, business and design come together seamlessly. Based in West Michigan, our focus is on promoting local tech growth through clear, insightful discussions. With a strong commitment to cross-discipline knowledge exchange, Merge brings together craftsmen from West MI including developers, designers and leaders for a day of learning, cross-industry collaboration, and connection from various sectors, Merge amplifies our shared goal to position West Michigan as a hub for high-tech advancements. Here, entrepreneurial spirit meets practical tech insights. No fluff, just forward-thinking conversations that truly matter.

Our theme for 2026, "AI at Work: Practical Intelligence for Software Teams," focuses on the real-world integration of AI into how we build software—not the hype, but what actually works.
Through engaging talks and networking, the Merge Conference empowers teams to work seamlessly, strengthening the connections between product, design, and development to craft better software—and better outcomes—together.
