MAXX 2026 Agenda Is Live: Explore What’s Ahead

Posted by on August 13, 2026

The MAXX 2026 agenda is officially live — and this year’s event is shaping up to be our biggest and most dynamic yet. Oct. 6-9 at the Gaylord Rockies Resort in Denver, credit union professionals from across the GoWest region will come together to learn, collaborate, be inspired, and celebrate the people and purpose that power the Credit Union Movement.

Built with today’s credit union opportunities and challenges in mind, the MAXX agenda delivers a mix of thought-provoking mainstage presentations, practical breakout sessions, interactive discussions, and ideas attendees can take straight back to their organizations.

Content is organized around five themes — setting the foundation, innovation, alignment, culture and growth, impact, and connection and collaboration — with sessions designed to provide value for leaders, board members, emerging professionals, and teams across every area of the credit union.

And MAXX is about more than great content. It’s the connections, celebrations, and shared experiences that make the event a can’t-miss gathering for the Credit Union Movement. From the Solutions Marketplace and CU4Kids Auction to the GoWest Awards Dinner and Gala, attendees will have plenty of opportunities to build relationships, discover new solutions, celebrate industry achievements, and make memories along the way.

  • 60+ industry experts, thought leaders, and credit union innovators sharing their insights and experience

  • Interactive roundtables designed for peer-to-peer learning, discussion, and collaboration
