Booth 114 and a Special Session on AI in Research Development
The Society of Research Administrators International (SRAI) Annual Meeting is right around the corner, taking place in San Antonio, TX from October 18–22, 2025 at the Marriott San Antonio Rivercenter on the Riverwalk. This gathering is a cornerstone for our field, bringing together colleagues from across the research administration spectrum for networking, professional development, and exposure to the latest innovations.
We are excited to announce that our team will be exhibiting at Booth 114 throughout the conference. Swing by to chat with research administration peers, share best practices, and discover new solutions to streamline grants management and compliance processes. Our staff will be available to answer questions and demonstrate some of the tools and resources we’ve developed for the community. Booth 114 will also be the spot to grab information about upcoming webinars and training opportunities relevant to university research administrators.
A highlight of this year's conference will be the session led by Brian Evans from the University of Memphis:
Topic: Utilizing AI Tools in Research Development Processes: A Guided Conversation
Date & Time: Wednesday, October 22, 2025, at 10:15 AM
Location: SRAI Annual Meeting, San Antonio, TX
Brian's talk will expand upon the webinar he presented with us earlier this year, incorporating new examples and practical guidance on integrating AI into everyday research development workflows. If you missed the original session, you can still catch up on the insights via our on-demand recording: AI Tools in Research Development Webinar with Brian Evans. Wednesday’s session will be interactive, giving attendees a space to ask questions and discuss how artificial intelligence is transforming proposal development, funding searches, and collaboration.
This year’s SRAI Annual Meeting promises rich opportunities for both learning and connection. We encourage everyone attending to stop by Booth 114, attend Brian Evans’s session, and connect with our team. Whether you want to discuss compliance challenges, explore AI-powered research solutions, or simply expand your professional network, we look forward to seeing you in San Antonio!
Let’s make October 18–22 a week of growth and collaboration in research administration.
