In November 2025, I shared a survey asking for small business owner’s insights and experiences with hosting, speaking at and attending virtual summits and I can’t wait to share what I found.

Hi, I’m Michelle Pontvert!
I’m an Easy Events Expert and lover of low-lift list growth strategies that help entrepreneurs grow their businesses without overstretching their limited time, energy and capacity.
I host several collaborative events each year, including two audio summits; Evidence of Humanity and Energy Savers. Plus, I spend a large chunk of my “desk time” supporting other small businesses with their summits both inside my done-with-you Event Intensives and my self-paced Simple Audio Summits course.
So I was very curious to find out how our broader online business industry is feeling and thinking about virtual summits as we head into 2026. Et voilà, the State of Summits Report was born!
