DS Americas Corp | Boston Marriott Copley Place, Boston, MA | March 11–13, 2026
At the 3DEXPERIENCE Forum 2026, hosted by DS Americas Corp, one thing was clear: attendee time matters. As another strong example of a forward-thinking user conference, the team recognized that while participants are eager to learn, network, and engage, their day-to-day responsibilities don’t pause just because they’re attending an event.
To support this reality, the conference incorporated NOOK Event Pods®—providing a mobile, comfortable solution for attendees to stay productive while on-site.
Strategically placed within the venue, the pods offered a quiet, sound-dampened environment where attendees could:
- Catch up on emails
- Take important calls
- Hold quick meetings
- Stay on top of ongoing work responsibilities
This approach reflects a growing trend among user conferences: designing experiences that respect both learning objectives and professional demands.
Rather than forcing attendees to leave the event space in search of a quiet corner—or worse, skip sessions entirely—the NOOK Event Pods® kept them engaged, present, and productive throughout the conference.
It’s a simple yet powerful concept: when you provide attendees with the tools to manage their workload, they are more likely to stay longer, participate more fully, and derive greater value from the event.
The 3DEXPERIENCE Forum 2026 is a great example of how thoughtful planning and small additions can make a big impact on the overall attendee experience.
