Last week, Juniper Group hosted its 2026 VMS101 – Best Practices Training in Palma de Mallorca, bringing together close to 100 leaders from across its global network of vertical market software companies.
Held from March 17–19 at Juniper Group’s headquarters, the annual event brought together CEOs and key functional leaders for a gathering focused on collaboration, knowledge sharing, and practical learning. The program is designed to equip participants with proven frameworks, shared metrics, and actionable insights to drive performance across the group.
Throughout the sessions, participants engaged in a mix of presentations, case discussions, and peer-led exchanges. A central theme this year was the growing impact of AI across vertical market software businesses, with dedicated discussions on how companies can adapt, integrate AI effectively, and turn emerging challenges into competitive advantages.
Beyond functional deep dives, VMS101 continues to emphasize the importance of building a strong peer network. By sharing real-world experiences and lessons learned, attendees gain practical perspectives from others who have successfully navigated similar challenges.
A key focus of the 2026 edition was ensuring that insights translate into action. Participants were encouraged to leave the event with clear commitments, identifying specific best practices to implement within their organizations over the coming months.
As Juniper Group continues to expand its portfolio and global footprint, initiatives like VMS101 play a critical role in fostering alignment, accelerating learning, and strengthening collaboration across the ecosystem.
