Step into the Insight Oasis at Research Week 2026
Prove what matters. Shape what’s next.
Book a meeting—and take five while you’re here.
AI is changing how experiences are built.
Conversational interfaces and agentic AI are reshaping products and customer journeys—and raising the bar for how fast teams need to learn and adapt.
At Research Week, we’re bringing that full picture together.
Visit the Insight Oasis, a shared space from UserTesting and User Interviews, where recruitment and experience insights come together to help teams move forward with confidence.
Come see how leading teams are:
• Recruiting the right participants in hours, not weeks
• Testing AI bots for personality and trust
• Testing full journeys, from prototype to real-world use
• Using video and benchmarks to drive more confident decisions
Let’s Make Research Week Count
Whether on the expo floor or between sessions, let’s talk about how research teams are adapting to the AI era.
Step into the Insight Oasis and meet the team. Whether you’re thinking about participant recruitment, research execution, or both—we’re here to connect.
We’re hosting informal conversations with research and product leaders throughout the week. Stop by, compare notes, and talk through how to scale insights across your organization.
UserTesting and User Interviews are hosting a shared lounge space designed for deeper conversations. It’s where recruitment and experience insights come together—and where research teams come to think things through.
Want to go deeper? Book time with our team and we’ll walk through your current approach, your challenges, and what’s next.
Bonus: meetings come with a built-in recharge moment.

11:45 P.m.–1:00 P.m Worth a Conversation If something from the morning sessions stuck with you, this is a good moment to talk it through. Stop by, connect the dots, and pressure-test what you’re thinking. |
2:15 p.m.–2:40 p.m One Last Reset Before everything wraps, take a moment for yourself. We’ll still have short massage sessions going—come by and close out the week on a good note. |
Throughout the week
