Meet Your Hosts

 

At IGNITE 2026, leadership is more than a title it’s a team effort built on purpose, presence, and partnership. Our three dynamic hosts, Brad Smith, Ryan Miller, and Jacob Pogue, don’t just set the tone for the event; they set the standard for what it means to lead with heart, conviction, and unity.

  • Brad Smith brings the vision. With a relentless drive for growth and a laser-sharp focus on results, he helps leaders think bigger, act bolder, and build lasting legacies.

  • Ryan Miller brings the energy. His magnetic enthusiasm and deep belief in people ignite a fire within, reminding us all that leadership starts with passion and is powered by people.

  • Jacob Pogue brings the calm. Grounded in wisdom and empathy, Jacob’s presence creates space for clarity, connection, and personal breakthroughs.

Together, they unite strategy, culture, and connection, not as buzzwords, but as the pillars of a life-changing experience. Their collaboration is a living example of the leadership we’re here to cultivate: not solo, but side by side. Not for status, but for service.

When you leave Ignite 2026, you won’t just walk away with powerful tools and business insights. You’ll leave with a renewed mindset, elevated vision, and the courage to lead yourself and others, both in business and in life.
