AI+RE 2026 Summit Pre-register
Program

Three hours, two panels, one live build.

Thursday, November 12, 2026 · Hilton Naples


Run of show

Clock times, published and kept.

1:30

Doors, check-in, coffee

Name badges carry company and role. Nothing starts late.

2:00

Welcome

Richard Forman. Five minutes on how the room works and what is off the record.

2:10

Panel one — Builders and contractors

What went into production, what it cost, and what was abandoned. Moderated, with questions from the room throughout rather than saved for the end.

3:05

Break

Fifteen minutes. Coffee in the foyer.

3:20

Panel two — Design, development and property management

The same three questions asked of architects, developers and the people who run portfolios day to day.

4:10

Live demo — one real problem, three or four tools

A problem drawn from a Naples project, worked in front of the room in twelve-minute turns. Live software, not slides. Tools are chosen on fit for the problem.

4:50

Close

What the room agreed on, what it did not, and what gets picked up next year.

5:00

Networking

In the foyer. Hard stop at 5:30.

Provisional. Session order and length settle as the lineup locks; the 2:00 start and the 5:30 stop do not move.


Rules of the room

What makes this different from a panel at a breakfast.

Everyone on stage is an operator

If a speaker’s company sells the tool, they are in the demo block, not on a panel. Nobody describes someone else’s results.

No pitching from the stage

Nobody sells to this room. Not from a panel, not from the demo block, not from the lectern between sessions.

Numbers or nothing

Speakers are asked for cost, timeline and headcount effect. “It’s been transformative” is not an answer.

Questions all the way through

Sixty seats means every hand can be taken. Panels are interrupted on purpose.
