BST Global has announced that registration is officially open for its third annual AI Summit, taking place from November 10 to November 12, 2026, at the Eau Resort & Spa in Palm Beach, Florida. The event builds on the momentum of its previous editions and continues to position itself as a dedicated forum for senior leaders in the architecture, engineering, and construction sector to explore how artificial intelligence and big data are reshaping strategy, project delivery, and operational models across the industry.
Registration opened on April 20, 2026, and will remain available until October 30, 2026, at 11:59 p.m. ET, with early-bird pricing offered to those who register by July 3, 2026. The summit is expected to bring together more than 300 senior executives from leading AEC firms, creating an environment focused on peer exchange, practical learning, and strategic discussion around real-world AI adoption at scale.
The 2026 edition expands its program with new formats designed to highlight applied innovation and peer learning. Among the additions are recognition awards honoring AEC leaders using emerging technologies to deliver measurable impact across business, societal, or cultural dimensions. A new session format will also feature concise presentations from selected industry leaders showcasing real-world AI use cases, followed by interactive discussion and audience engagement. Alongside these additions, the agenda includes expanded panels and customer conversations that focus on both successes and challenges in deploying AI within complex project environments.
Key themes for the summit include AI-native business models, intelligent automation through agentic systems, trust and responsible AI governance, operational risk and resilience, and the evolution of the AI-augmented workforce. The program is designed to provide attendees with both strategic perspective and practical insights they can apply within their organizations as the industry continues to transition toward more data-driven and AI-enabled operations.
Javier A. Baldor, Chief Executive Officer at BST Global, emphasized the growing importance of the event in the industry’s transformation, noting that AI is rapidly shifting from experimentation toward enterprise-scale adoption and that forums like the AI Summit are becoming increasingly important for leaders navigating this change. He highlighted the role of the summit in fostering meaningful dialogue among industry executives as they prepare for the next phase of transformation in AEC delivery models.
