We’re pleased to announce the launch of the Florida IUG Regional! Planning is underway for the Florida IUG Regional on Thursday, February 5, 2026, at the Jacksonville Public Library.
This in-person event will bring together Polaris and Vega users from across the region for a day of learning, collaboration, and community building. Clarivate will be on site to share product updates and lead discussions, and we’ll have time for networking, peer-led sessions, and future planning.
Clarivate is generously sponsoring morning refreshments and a box lunch.
