In 2026, the NAWRB Leadership Summit returns with Survival of the Fittest Part II — The Rise of Energy.
The world is shifting quickly across energy, transportation, housing, capital, AI, health, and economic mobility. This summit brings leaders, innovators, investors, experts, and change agents together to identify where opportunities are emerging — and how to access the resources, relationships, strategies, and intelligence needed to lead through the next era.
Grounded in NAWRB’s Development & Innovation Leadership Council, The Rise of Energy is about more than systems. It is about the human energy required to navigate change with clarity, resilience, empathy, innovation, and purpose.
Join us October 5–6, 2026, as we connect the people, ideas, and opportunities shaping the future of leadership, housing, real estate, business, health, capital, technology, and Quality of Life.
