The 3D Commerce Summit 2026 is a wrap, and what an incredible two days it was.
Held February 9-11 at the Vinoy Resort in St. Petersburg, Florida, this year’s summit brought together industry leaders and innovators from across the furniture, kitchen, outdoor, and home furnishings industries. Over the course of the event, we explored how immersive 3D, AI, and visualization are transforming the way customers shop and businesses sell.
Highlights from the Event
The summit opened with a welcome reception and dinner at the Museum of Fine Arts, where we celebrated our Partner Innovation Award recipients, followed by a nightcap at the Birchwood Canopy rooftop bar in downtown St. Pete.
Day one kicked off with a keynote from Olympic Gold Medalist Jim Craig of the 1980 “Miracle on Ice” team, who spoke about what it takes for teams to deliver on seemingly impossible goals. From there, Google’s Wayne Davis challenged the room to think bigger about AI. 3D Cloud’s Jeff Rudderman, Barry Besecker, Ben Rubey, and Jeff Cowgill took the stage to demo 3D Cloud products and applications that have delivered incredible ROI for customers, and to share the platform roadmap, including major advances in real-time rendering and AI-driven content creation. Customer fireside chats with CITY Furniture and Raymour & Flanigan brought a real-world perspective on what it takes to scale 3D successfully. We also introduced SPATIAL Magazine, a showcase of top lifestyle renders from the 3D Cloud designer community.
Throughout the day, subject matter experts were on hand during breaks to demo our full suite of tools, including the Room Planner, Kitchen Designer, Outdoor/Deck Designer, Product Configurator, and Product Renders, giving attendees a chance to see the platform up close and ask questions in a hands-on setting.
Between sessions, Projectory facilitated an Opening Conversation Mash-up, a lively mix of idea-generation and connection-building that got everyone energized early in the day. They also closed out the afternoon with a Collaborative Trivia with Towering Stakes, a high-energy quiz game with a block-stacking twist that had the whole room competing. The evening wrapped with dinner and a live show at St. Pete Distillery.
Day two went deep on the practitioner side. Vince Kilian put today’s AI interior design tools to the test, with a candid verdict on retailer readiness. A standout panel featuring MillerKnoll, Frontgate, and more got refreshingly honest about the roadblocks behind even the most successful 3D programs. Jeff Dollard explored how complex 3D challenges can be solved at enterprise scale, and Jeff Cowgill closed out with a look at what’s coming on the 3D Cloud product roadmap.
