The builders who keep growing through uncertainty are not the ones who work harder. They are the ones who know what is changing, understand what it means for their business, and act before the window closes.
The APB Summit 2027 is two days away from the day-to-day, built around where the industry is heading and what that means for your business specifically. The agenda is designed so that what you hear on the day connects directly to the decisions sitting on your desk when you get back.
I Want to Stay Ahead ↗
“Meeting like-minded builders at the APB Summit has been invaluable. Realising that the challenges we face are shared across the industry and collaborating to find solutions together has been my biggest takeaway. This is an event every builder can benefit from; there’s truly something here for everyone.”
The conditions heading into 2027 are going to test a lot of building companies. Costs are still unpredictable, client expectations have shifted, and the decisions you make about your team, your pipeline, and your systems in the next year will shape what your business looks like when things settle.
This event is for the owners and directors who want to make those decisions with a clear head, not piece things together after the fact. If you are serious about building a company that holds its value regardless of what the market does, this is where you need to be.
SECURE YOUR SPOT ↗The residential building industry is changing faster than most business owners can track. At the Summit, you will get a clear read on where things are heading, what it means for your business, and what to do about it before your competitors do.
The conversations that happen outside the main room are just as valuable as the sessions inside it. Spend two days with builders who are thinking at the same level, facing the same decisions, and willing to talk honestly about what is and is not working.
There is a difference between being busy and being strategic. The Summit gives you the perspective to separate the two, so you leave with a clear sense of what actually needs your attention and what you should stop spending time on.
Two days away from the business is not a luxury. It is a decision. Builders who step back to assess their position consistently make better decisions than those who never come up for air. This is your window to do that.
Every year, the APB Summit speaker lineup goes through a rigorous, multi-stage selection process built entirely on merit. We start with the topics that matter most to building company owners right now, then build a lineup that brings together internationally recognised professionals alongside operators who understand the residential building industry from the inside. The 2027 lineup? It’s coming. And it’s worth the wait.

Whether you are flying in or driving down, the venue is easy to get to and surrounded by excellent options for accommodation, dining, and transport. Everything is set up so you can focus on the reason you came: getting clarity on your business and what comes next.
Get Tickets ↗The APB Summit is built for the owners and directors of residential building companies who are serious about growing a stronger, more profitable business. It is not for developers, subcontractors, or commercial builders. If you are committed to building a company that runs well, holds its value, and does not depend entirely on you, this event is for you.
Because the cost of staying exactly where you are is higher than the cost of two days away. The builders who grow the fastest are the ones who invest in time to think strategically, not just time to produce. The Summit gives you the space to do that, along with the people and the content to make those two days count.
Every Summit is built around what is happening now. The industry does not stand still, and neither does the agenda. New benchmarks, fresh thinking, and updated strategies mean that return attendees consistently walk away with just as much as they did the first time, often more, because they know what to look for and how to apply it.
The full 2027 speaker lineup will be announced in the coming months. You will hear from APB Co-Founders Russ Stephens and Sky Kolade, alongside a curated mix of industry operators and specialists. Every speaker goes through a rigorous selection process to ensure what they deliver is relevant, practical, and worth your time.
While our free events deliver great value, the Summit is a different level of event to anything else APB runs. The sessions go deeper, the conversations are more direct, and the builders in the room are running serious companies and working through the same decisions you are. What gets covered is not available anywhere else in the industry.
The APB Summit 2027 will be held at Sofitel Sydney Wentworth on 24–25 June 2027. Doors open at 8:00 AM and sessions run until 5:00 PM each day. VIP dinner details will be confirmed and communicated to VIP ticket holders separately.
