Join Geni at RootsTech 2024

In just one week Geni will be heading to RootsTech, the largest genealogy conference in the world. Each year, RootsTech offers a wide variety of classes perfect for the beginning family history enthusiast to more advanced genealogists. The conference will be held February 29 – March 2 at the Salt Palace Convention Center in Salt Lake City, Utah.

Once again RootsTech will be both in-person and virtual, so if you cannot make it to Salt Lake City, you can join the fun virtually from the comfort of home! You can register for free for the RootsTech online conference. Those who sign up for the virtual conference will get access to hundreds of class sessions, virtual expo hall, awesome keynote addresses, and other unique experiences.

Exciting keynote speakers include comedian Henry Cho, photographer Nancy Borowick, and award-winning actress and singer Kristen Chenoweth. Before the conference, be sure to explore Kristen Chenoweth’s family tree on Geni and discover how you’re connected to the star in Geni’s World Family Tree!

Expo Hall

If you are planning to be there in person, the Expo Hall will be free to the public during the entire conference. We hope you stop by the expo hall to visit Geni at booth #1300 and say hello to the team! We always enjoy meeting Geni users and we’ll be happy to help answer any questions. You can also pick up fun giveaways and get a special conference discount on a Geni Pro subscription.

MyHeritage Booth Lectures

MyHeritage will be holding booth lectures every day during the entire conference. You can catch Geni’s General Manager Mike Stangel on Thursday, February 29 at 5pm at the MyHeritage booth to learn all about “Getting the Most out of Geni’s Source Assistant.” Mike will take you through how to use the Source Assistant to improve and expand Geni’s World Family Tree.
