2026 THEME Uncharted: Navigating the firm of the future
This year’s ElevateAEC conference is designed for AEC leaders navigating a landscape that no longer comes with clear precedents or reliable playbooks. From shifting markets and evolving client demands to talent pressures, technology disruption, and ownership transitions, today’s firm leaders are being asked to make consequential decisions without a blueprint. This conference brings together forward-thinking executives to explore how to lead with clarity, resilience, and vision—equipping firms to chart their own course, adapt with confidence, and build what comes next.
CALL FOR PRESENTERS
We’re seeking experienced AEC practitioners and leaders to join us with breakout sessions that are: ₀ Grounded in real experience—not theory alone ₀ Candid and practical, not polished case studies with the rough edges sanded off ₀ Bold but responsible—less “move fast and break things,” more “move deliberately and build things that last”
