ORLANDO, Fla. (November 2026) – The Themed Entertainment & Attractions Prayer Network will host its annual Prayer Networking Breakfast during the IAAPA Expo on Thursday, November 19, 2026, from 8:30 to 10:00 a.m. in Room N220ABCD at the Orange County Convention Center. This year’s keynote speaker is Jacob Robinson, entrepreneur, speaker, and founder of Dig World.
The event is free and open to convention attendees. It includes a complimentary warm breakfast, fresh coffee, a keynote address, and time to network with fellow industry colleagues.
A Personal Journey Turned Into a Bold Vision
Robinson’s story began with a family crisis. His son Pierce was permanently disabled by bacterial meningitis. Robinson turned that experience into a vision for a construction-themed amusement park where children of all abilities can experience the joy of operating real heavy equipment.
The road to Dig World was not easy. Robinson heard “no” from 248 investors before earning a deal on ABC’s Shark Tank and bringing his vision to life.
Faith, Perseverance, and Purpose
Robinson’s keynote will explore how faith, perseverance, and purpose can help people navigate adversity and create something meaningful for others. Attendees can expect a morning of inspiration, reflection, and fellowship.
“Jacob’s story is a powerful reminder of how faith, perseverance, and purpose can help us navigate adversity and create something meaningful for others,” said Kelly Hornick on behalf of the Themed Entertainment & Attractions Prayer Network Planning Committee. “We’re looking forward to hearing his perspective and sharing a morning of fellowship, encouragement, and meaningful conversation with our colleagues across the industry.”
