Move Beyond “Collecting Data”
The Opening Keynote introduces a critical shift: data collection is no longer just about gathering information.
AI agents, automation, and evolving customer expectations are reshaping how organizations collect data. The most effective teams are:
- Designing systems intentionally
- Reducing time spent on data cleanup
- Automating follow-up actions
- Protecting data integrity from the start
FormFest 2026 focuses on how to build these systems without adding complexity.
Improve CRM Data Quality at the Source
Dirty data doesn’t start in your CRM. It usually starts with a form.
In Improving CRM Data: Preventing Duplicates in Salesforce, HubSpot, and More, you’ll see how organizations prevent duplicate records automatically and ensure cleaner databases before information ever reaches their CRM.
Instead of fixing data after the fact, you’ll learn how to:
- Validate and structure submissions intelligently
- Reduce duplicate records
- Protect reporting accuracy
- Maintain long-term data integrity
If your team spends time reconciling CRM records or troubleshooting reporting discrepancies, this session could reshape how you work.
Replace Paper and PDFs With Intelligent Web Forms
Many organizations still rely on static PDFs, emailed attachments, or paper forms that require manual entry. In Converting Web Forms and Digitizing Paper Processes, you’ll see how legacy processes can be transformed into dynamic, web-based workflows using AI-driven tools.
The outcome?
- No more manual transcription
- Faster turnaround times
- Reduced human error
- A better experience for applicants, customers, or constituents
If modernization has felt overwhelming, this session will show you how quickly (and easily!) transformation can begin.
Turn Every Form Into a Smart Workflow
A form submission should trigger something meaningful, not sit in an inbox.
In Building Better Form Follow-Up, you’ll learn how to convert static forms into automated workflows that:
- Route submissions automatically
- Trigger approvals
- Sync data across systems
- Surface and resolve errors quickly
The result is a structured data lifecycle instead of reactive inbox management. Sounds nice, doesn’t it?
Build Smarter Integrations Without Custom Development
Many teams assume advanced integrations require developers. In Advanced Integration Logic, you’ll see why that isn’t true.
The session will show you how to create responsive, conditional data integrations that adapt to real-world complexity without the need to build custom infrastructure.
This means:
- Smarter data syncing
- Conditional processing
- Intelligent routing between systems like Salesforce, Microsoft Sharepoint, and more
- Scalable architecture as your organization grows
If your current tools feel rigid or disconnected, this session will show you what modern integration should look like.
Ensure Compliance, Accessibility, and Security
For the public sector and regulated industries, modernization comes with compliance requirements.
In Efficient, Accessible, Compliant Public Sector Data Collection, we’ll explore how organizations can meet strict security and accessibility requirements while still delivering modern digital experiences.
You’ll learn how to balance:
- Accessibility standards
- Secure cloud environments
- Regulatory compliance
- Operational efficiency
Modernization does not mean compromise. It means building correctly from the start.
See Real-World Transformation in Action
FormFest 2026 also highlights how organizations across sectors are rethinking intake and application processes. You’ll hear stories from organizations like:
- The Minneapolis Foundation, which reduced administrative friction in grant applications and reviews.
- College Possible, which helped replace error-prone, high-volume student intake processes with centralized automation for their clients.
- ElevateActual, which helps transform traditional RFI processes into modernized admissions architecture.
These sessions will demonstrate measurable outcomes:
- Reduced administrative burden
- Improved applicant experience
- Faster service delivery
- Greater reporting clarity
Instead of theoretical use cases, you’ll see practical transformation in action in each of these expert-led sessions.
