It’s almost time for Itron Inspire 2023! We couldn’t be more excited to reconnect with customers, partners, utility and city leaders in San Antonio, Texas. The conference gets started on Oct. 22 with pre-conference training and officially kicks off on Oct. 24 with the Knowledge Conference. As you prepare for your trip, we put together a few tips to help you make the most of your time.

Download the Itron Inspire app. 
The app is your go-to resource for all things Itron Inspire and will ensure you stay in the know. It houses the complete conference schedule, alerts, reminders, locations and more. Do yourself a favor and download it on your phone before you go – it’s available for both IOS and Android users. You can also view it in a web browser but you won’t receive notifications or changes to events and sessions without refreshing the page.

Build your schedule ahead of time. 
Use the Itron Inspire app to create your ideal schedule of everything you want to attend at the conference. However, please remember that adding a session to your personal schedule does not guarantee a seat.

Tee Off at the Annual Golf Tournament!

It’s going to range from mild to warm. 
October temperatures in San Antonio range from the low 60s to the mid-80s. Events take place indoors and outdoors, check the forecast before you pack!

Conference attire is business casual.

You’ll likely be on your feet for the majority of the conference, so make sure to wear comfortable shoes. And don’t forget your attire for the party on Wednesday night! Sponsored by Terrago, this signature event is fiesta themed and calls for an evening of dinner, live music and dancing with your fellow conference attendees.

We can’t wait to explore the possibilities at Itron’s premier, customer-focused event and to continue our collaboration to create a more resourceful world.  Make sure to follow along on social media and join the conversation by using the hashtag #ItronInspire23. See you in Texas!
