About this Event
Summary
Join the 2026 NACIA Annual Meeting in San Luis Obispo or virtually for industry updates, discussion, and connection.
Join Us at the NACIA Annual Meeting 2026!
This is our chance to bring the North American insect agriculture community together to reconnect, compare notes, hear the latest industry and regulatory developments, and have candid conversations about what is working, what is changing, and where the biggest opportunities lie.
We hope you will join us in person at Cal Poly San Luis Obispo on the morning of Thursday, November 19. If you cannot make it to California, please register to attend virtually.
Expect a focused, practical morning built around real industry insight, member discussion, and the priorities that will shape NACIA’s work in 2027.
NACIA Members: Come Early
NACIA members attending in person are invited and encouraged to join the NACIA Board meeting on the afternoon of Wednesday, November 18, followed by dinner that evening.
The Board meeting is open to NACIA members and invited guests only. Additional details will be shared with registered members.
Stay for the Frass Institute
The Annual Meeting is only part of our time together in San Luis Obispo. The inaugural full gathering of the Frass Institute will begin Thursday afternoon following the NACIA Annual Meeting and continue Friday morning.
This will be a working gathering focused on advancing shared priorities around insect frass, research, regulation, markets, and practical industry needs.
Separate registration for the Frass Institute meeting will be available soon.
If you are part of the insect agriculture community, we hope you will join us.
