Ready to /GoLive with Pantheon in Miami?
October 6–7 · Loews Miami Beach · golive.pantheon.io
Twenty years in marketing. My conference attendance stat line reads like an NBA season: thousands of touches across keynotes, breakouts, and the obligatory cocktail hour.
This means I can tell you with some confidence: the conversation enterprises need right now doesn't have a home court.
Wait…what conversation? The one about AI obliterating almost every barrier to building on the web. Vibe coding is real. The speed is real. And the pressure on every developer, digital marketer, and technology leader to move faster, with fewer resources, inside tighter governance frameworks, is only accelerating. Everyone's playing at full-court press, but nobody's running the same play.
GoLive 2026 is where the builders, architects, digital marketers, and technology leaders in regulated industries and complex enterprises come to figure out what comes next — to go beyond the vibe. Together.
No product pitches from countless sponsors. No vendor theater. Just the people who've actually shipped this stuff in production environments, people thinking about the future of the web, and people using the web for work that matters. All in the same gym, comparing notes on what actually works.
Okay, I’m going to stop with basketball metaphors. It’s not a shabby gym. We are kicking off GoLive at the glamorous Loews Miami Hotel, with the ocean in the background to capture our big dreams and beach cabanas to bring those ideas to life.
Who is this conference for?
It's for the people who feel the tension.
If you're a developer or technical architect who has to deliver at AI speed inside a governance structure that hasn't caught up, this is for you.
If you're a digital marketer or content leader who needs to build and ship experiences faster than your approval process allows, and is wondering how AI fits into that without blowing up compliance, this is for you.
If you're a technology executive who is being asked to accelerate AI adoption and explain the risk framework in the same breath, this is absolutely for you.
If you're an agency partner building and maintaining web experiences for enterprise clients in healthcare, finance, government, or education, the people you serve will be in this room.
We're expecting a mix of Drupal, WordPress, and Next.js practitioners, digital experience leaders, and the engineers and executives responsible for the enterprise web. This is by design. For too long, these communities have lived in silos. Let's fix that.
That cross-ecosystem, cross-role dynamic is intentional. The people doing this well have figured out that the answer isn't ecosystem-specific. It lives in how you architect the foundation.
What will the GoLive sessions cover?
The event is built around one central question: How do you build at AI speed inside the governance frameworks you cannot compromise?
Every session, panel, and keynote maps back to that. Here's how the four content tracks break down:
Developer Track: The technical reality of AI-assisted development in enterprise environments. Practical sessions on architecture, CI/CD, security, and the day-to-day decisions developers face when speed and governance collide.
Marketer Track: Built for the digital marketing and content leaders navigating the gap between campaign velocity and enterprise risk. Sessions on AI content workflows, digital experience strategy, and what it actually looks like to ship faster without creating the kind of technical debt your legal and security teams will hand back to you in six months.
Executive Round Tables: Strategic conversations for technology and business leaders. The executive sessions are designed for the room that doesn't want a product demo. They want to understand what their peers in regulated industries are actually doing, what the risk calculus looks like, and how to make the case internally for the investments that make AI adoption sustainable.
Agency Partner Track: Built specifically for the agency and systems integrator community. Sessions on how to serve enterprise clients at AI scale, partner business model questions, and a dedicated Partner Summit for top-tier partners.
Can I speak?
Yes, and we want you to.
There isn’t a formal call for papers. We want to talk to you like a human. Shoot us an email at info@golive.pantheon.io. We're looking for practitioners, not keynote celebrities. The sessions we're most excited to put on stage are the ones that couldn't happen at any other event: the talk that requires real experience in a regulated environment, a real architecture decision with real stakes, a real lesson from a migration that didn't go as planned.
Don’t send us product pitches. This is a community event, not a vendor showcase. If your talk abstract reads like a capabilities deck, we'll pass.
A few things that will get you on our shortlist:
- A specific problem you solved (or didn't solve, and what you learned)
- A perspective that bridges the technical and the strategic
- Content that would be valuable to someone running a different stack than yours
Session lengths are 30 or 45 minutes. We'll notify all submitters by late summer. Questions? Email info@golive.pantheon.io.
Why now?
Because the window to build the right foundation is closing.
The vibe coding wave isn't cresting. It's accelerating. The pressure on enterprise teams to adopt AI in their build pipelines is not going away, and the governance gap that creates is widening in real time. The organizations that figure this out now are the ones that will still own their web in five years. The ones that don't are going to be spending that time cleaning up what they shipped too fast.
The people who've figured it out: the developers who built the bedrock that makes AI-assisted development safe at scale, the digital leaders who've navigated the gap between campaign speed and enterprise risk, the executives who've made the case internally for the investments that actually last. That knowledge doesn't live in documentation. It lives in people.
We're getting those people in the same room. In October. In Miami.
Now is the right time.
How do I convince my company to send me?
Here's the real skinny:
The ROI argument: One conversation with a practitioner who has already solved the problem you're about to spend six months on is worth more than the registration fee. Conferences that put the right people in the same room aren't a line item. They're a shortcut.
The timing argument: The AI-ready web is being built right now. The architecture decisions your team makes in the next 12–18 months are going to define what your organization's web looks like for the next five years. You want to be in the room where that's being figured out, not catch up after the fact.
The audience argument: This isn't a vendor event or a generalist conference where you spend three days in sessions that don't apply to your stack. The agenda is built around a specific problem: building at AI speed inside enterprise governance. The people in the room will be the practitioners and leaders who are actually living that problem.
The practical argument: Two days in Miami in October. Mainstage sessions, track breakouts, and enough structured networking that you'll actually meet the people you want to talk to. The Loews Miami Beach has a room block at conference rates. It's not hard to make this trip work.
We've also put together a convince-your-boss letter template at golive.pantheon.io if you want something you can actually forward.
