FOREVER Celebrates 9th Year as Major Sponsor of RootsTech

FOREVER®, the leading online platform for family memory keeping is delighted to announce its 9th year as a major sponsor of RootsTech, a convention held every year in Salt Lake City, Utah and hosted by FamilySearch International.

RootsTech is the largest convention of people and companies focused on the technology of family history and memory keeping. The event, held this year March 6th through 8th, offers a rich schedule of informative keynote addresses, entertainment, workshops, and innovative technology showcases.

“My team and I are always excited about RootsTech,” said Glen Meakem, FOREVER’s Founder & CEO.

“Like our partners at FamilySearch, we love family history and memories, and that is why we support and integrate our technology with FamilySearch.”

As a pioneer in permanent digital preservation, FOREVER offers an unparalleled platform where users can save their photos, documents, videos, and audio recordings for generations to come. With a unique combination of storage, digitization, printing, genealogy, and more, FOREVER boasts the only complete memory-keeping solution out there. Their platform ensures that the legacies and stories of today are accessible for generations into the future.

FOREVER will host a large booth as well as multiple workshops and a presentation at this year’s convention, "From Lessons to Legacy: Insights from Teaching Aspiring Genealogists,” led by FOREVER Senior Genealogical Researcher Katie Derby.

Derby's presentation will uncover the strategies and tools professional genealogists use to transform research into a meaningful legacy. Drawing on her experience as a college instructor in BYU-Idaho’s Family History Research Program and over 25 years as a professional genealogist, this presentation will combine practical techniques with insights gained from teaching aspiring genealogists and applying those lessons in real-world research.

In addition, several FOREVER Senior Executive Ambassadors will represent FOREVER at RootsTech, including Marianna Curran. This will be Curran’s eighth year representing FOREVER at RootsTech. “I love RootsTech,” says Curran, “because the genealogy community are as passionate about family history as I am about protecting what they hold dear.”

FOREVER will be located at Booth 1311.
