In what will be a decidedly warmer event this year, Oasys Residential Technology Group has announced that the 2026 edition of their Oasys Summit will head to sunny California April 20-22. Taking a page out of their sister organization Azione’s alliterative themes, Oasys will host the “Coronado Conclave” at the Coronado Island Resort & Spa.
“The Summit is where relationships grow,” Hank Alexander, director of Oasys, said in a statement. “Our members have the opportunity to sit down with vendor partners, see the latest products in action, and have honest conversations about what’s working in the field. It’s the best mix of business and community you’ll find anywhere in our industry.”
Perhaps inspired by the actual conclave (and the announcement of a new Pope) that occurred in the midst of last year’s event, the group decided to theme this this year’s Summit around the meaning of the term. A conclave (noun) is a private meeting or assembly of professionals brought together by shared interests and goals, according to Merriam-Webster. And, with over 200 custom integration professionals expected to be in attendance, Oasys said the 2026 Summit will be designed to have those on-hand engage in meaningful and impactful ways.
Oasys shared that the event will feature more interactive product demo rooms than any previous Summit, peer-led roundtable discussions, one-on-one vendor meetings, and carefully crafted networking opportunities. There are also plans to leverage the relaxed and inspiring backdrop, just across the bay from San Diego, to create some unforgettable experiences.
What’ll be interesting, as well, is to see if (and how) the Builder Connect program will be present at this Summit. It’s the first mass gathering of the group’s CI division since the program was announced in December. That program, which felt like the culmination of many different initiatives, promises to leverage NMG’s expertise across a variety of different channels to better support the builder and contractor markets.
“As the builder channel continues to evolve, there is a real need for coordinated support that reflects how these businesses operate,” Doug Wrede, executive vice president of operations at Nationwide Marketing Group, said in a statement at the time of the program’s announcement. “Builder Connect brings together our partnerships, our scale and the expanded reach of our newer platforms to help every participant grow in a more efficient, more connected way.”
The 2026 Oasys Summit should be a solid check-in point for that program, so we’ll be excited to hear how things are advancing on that front.Oasys members can register for the 2026 Oasys Summit at the link right here.
