ABOUT
Compliance to Intelligence is the theme of the 2026 e-Records Conference, reflecting how Texas governments are shifting from traditional electronic records management toward enterprise-wide information intelligence. As data volumes grow and digital services expand, governments must not only meet statutory requirements but also unlock the strategic value hidden within their information ecosystems. Today’s landscape demands integrated approaches that blend records management, data governance, cybersecurity, privacy, and artificial intelligence to strengthen trust, improve decision making, and enhance public service. This conference is your opportunity to learn from leaders in records, data, and IT about practical strategies, emerging technologies, and responsible frameworks that turn compliance obligations into actionable, organization wide insight.
CALL FOR PRESENTATIONS
The 2026 e‑Records Conference invites proposals for practical, learner‑focused sessions that help government professionals strengthen electronic records and information governance programs.

EXHIBITOR AND SPONSOR REGISTRATION
This popular annual conference provides an excellent opportunity for your company to meet decision-makers from Texas government interested in the management of electronic records. Vendors with services and products related to electronic records and data management are invited to exhibit. The exhibit area features tabletop displays rather than large tradeshow-style booths, making for an easy set up appreciated by past exhibitors. In addition to exhibitor tables, this year you can sponsor breakfast or lunch, host the Lunch and Learn, or lead a Thought Leader session to showcase your expertise and engage more directly with attendees.
Don’t miss this unique opportunity to meet public sector decision-makers and showcase your offerings. Space is limited, so register early!
