From strategy to certification, the 2025 Collective agenda delivers the only conversations worth having. Live in Austin this August — no fluff, no filler. You don’t need another expo floor or a recycled panel.

You need access. You need ideas. You need to hear directly from the leaders building what’s next in restoration, insurance, and scaling operations. This year’s agenda is built for action — with sessions that challenge convention, deliver clarity, and drive growth.
