We're excited to announce that Alex Fakeri, CEO of MOJO Creative Digital, will be a featured speaker at the 2026 GEO Conference — the official conference dedicated to Generative Engine Optimization, often described as "SEO for AI."
Mark your calendars. Here's where you'll find us:
This is the 3rd GEO Conference, taking place in the nation's capital as it celebrates its 250th birthday. The first two conferences — Austin in June 2025 and San Francisco in December 2025 — both sold out and were rated five stars. geo-conferencegeo-conference
If you've been following the seismic shifts in how people find information online, you already know that traditional search is being reshaped by AI. This full-day conference is dedicated to understanding "AI SEO," also known as Generative Engine Optimization (GEO). Other names for the field include LLM SEO, AEO, and AIO, though the organizers argue GEO is the most accurate term. geo-conferencegeo-conference
The central question driving the entire event is one every brand is now wrestling with: how do you show up in AI-generated results like ChatGPT, Claude, and Gemini? While the field shares many similarities with traditional SEO, it is profoundly different in several key ways. geo-conferencegeo-conference
For MOJO Creative Digital and our clients, this isn't an abstract trend — it's the next frontier of digital visibility, and it's exactly the kind of forward-looking work Alex is passionate about leading.
This isn't your typical trade show. The organizers are explicit that attendees shouldn't expect sales booths, vendors, or thousands of people — no fluff, no filler, no flashy booths, no theatrics. Instead, it's designed for operators, strategists, practitioners, and builders who want to stay ahead of the algorithm. geo-conferencegeo-conference
Here's what's on the agenda:
The two-track structure — Marketing and Technical, held in separate rooms — is designed so companies can divide and conquer, sending a content marketer or SEO strategist to one track and a technical analyst or developer to the other. One note worth flagging: there are no recordings, and nothing is posted online afterward — it's an in-the-room-only experience. geo-conferencegeo-conference
One of the things we're most excited about is the caliber of the room. This is a gathering of marketing leaders, SEO experts, managers, tech experts, digital marketers, and business owners all focused on the future of search. geo-conference
A sample of the organizations attending on June 18 includes Marriott International, the global car rental firm Sixt, Philip Morris, the startup Super.com, and universities like Carnegie Mellon, the University of Richmond, and Harvard. Also attending are insurance companies including Mutual of Omaha and NJM, health company AdaptHealth, the Mellon Foundation, networking and security firm Belden, telecommunications giant AT&T, and even the Federal Reserve Bank of New York. Alongside these enterprises are plenty of attendees who run agencies or are building GEO products themselves. geo-conference + 2
The event is also backed by an impressive roster of partners and sponsors, including Google, OpenAI, Profound, Algomizer, Anthropic, the American Society for AI, Cubbie.com, Semrush, Evertune, MOI, Brandi, Andreessen Horowitz, DS Simon Media, 50Pros, GEOGrow.ai, Peec AI, Merritt Group, and Brick Marketing.
We're looking forward to connecting with fellow agency leaders, in-house marketing teams, technical SEO experts, and the GEO product builders who are defining this space. If your company is attending or speaking, we'd love to meet — come find Alex and the MOJO Creative Digital team.
Having our CEO on the speaker roster reflects MOJO Creative Digital's commitment to staying at the leading edge of digital marketing. As AI search continues to reshape how brands get discovered, GEO is moving from a buzzword to a business-critical discipline — and we're proud to help lead that conversation.
The conference promises attendees actionable insights to bring back to their companies, learned directly from the experts working behind the scenes. That's the same philosophy we bring to every client engagement. geo-conference
If you care about how your brand shows up in the age of AI search, we'd love to see you there on Thursday, June 18, 2026, at the Ritz-Carlton in Washington, D.C. Tickets are first-come, first-serve and limited by room capacity — once they sell out, that's it. geo-conference
We look forward to networking, sharing ideas, and learning alongside the other talented companies and speakers attending GEO Conference 2026. See you in D.C.!

Our CEO, Alex Fakeri, is a featured speaker at GEO Conference 2026.
It takes place Thursday, June 18, 2026, from 9:00 AM to 4:00 PM at The Ritz-Carlton, 1150 22nd St NW, Washington, D.C. 20037. geo-conference
GEO stands for Generative Engine Optimization — essentially "SEO for AI." It's also called LLM SEO, AEO, or AIO, and it focuses on how brands show up in AI-generated results like ChatGPT, Claude, and Gemini. geo-conferencegeo-conference
While the field shares many similarities with traditional SEO, it is profoundly different in several key ways — centered on how generative AI engines surface and cite content rather than how classic search engines rank pages. geo-conference
More than 200 companies, over 20 talks, and two tracks (Marketing and Technical) held in separate rooms. It's deliberately kept smaller and more intimate to foster meaningful connections, and is built for operators, strategists, practitioners, and builders rather than as a typical trade show with vendor booths. geo-conferencegeo-conference
The organizers recommend sending at least two people to divide and conquer — for example, a content marketer or SEO strategist for the Marketing Track and a technical analyst or developer for the Technical Track. geo-conference
A sample of attending organizations includes Marriott International, Sixt, Philip Morris, Super.com, Carnegie Mellon, Harvard, the University of Richmond, Mutual of Omaha, NJM, AdaptHealth, the Mellon Foundation, Belden, AT&T, and the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, along with many agency leaders and GEO product builders. geo-conferencegeo-conference

Pricing is $900 for one ticket, $650 each for two tickets, and $500 each for three or more — all All Access. Tickets are first-come, first-serve and limited by room capacity, so once they sell out, that's it. geo-conferencegeo-conference
No. There are no recordings and nothing is posted online afterward — it's an in-the-room-only experience. geo-conference
Yes. Lunch is included (with vegetarian, vegan, and gluten-free options), and every attendee receives a goodie gift bag valued at $25,000+ in credits, GEO tools, services, consultations, and audits, delivered by email a few days after the event. geo-conference
Comfortable and conference-casual, though dressing up is fine too. geo-conference
DCA is recommended — downtown D.C. is about a 15-minute drive away, versus roughly 40 minutes from IAD. geo-conference
There's no hotel room block, so you can stay anywhere — there are many hotel options in the area. geo-conference
We'd love to meet fellow attendees and speakers — come find Alex and the team in the room.
