Plenty of industry execs were seen in the wild earlier this month in Vail, Colorado, for Adaptive Spirit’s annual event (formerly known as SkiTAM). The weekend of educational panels, networking and, of course, skiing is the top fundraiser for the U.S. Paralympic Ski and Snowboard teams.

This year’s gathering had nearly 1,200 attendees with a record silent auction that raised more than $240,000. Popular auction items included a trip for two to San Diego’s Comic-Con, a suite for 12 at a Lakers game and a spot in this year’s #PlumeStrong Cycling Challenge, which starts in Zurich, Switzerland, and take riders through the Alps and Dolomites over the course of five days, ending in Venice, Italy (512 miles).

The weekend’s educational track included discussions on AI with Comcast, Charter, CSG, AWS and Cognizant as well as The Cable Center’s annual industry icon mixer featuring Advance’s Nomi Bergman as the 2024 honoree. Mark your calendars for April 3-6 for next year’s Adaptive Spirit event. More than 40 sponsorships are already sold, with it on track to sell out.
