Builder 2026 sold out.

What a session day looks like
Talks until three, then the day is FREE.
Mornings
Short talks, peer to peer
Each day contains 15-minute talks from founders and operators. Real numbers, and the decisions behind them. Speakers will be announced in 2027 and chosen from the attendee list.
Midday
Working lunches
Lunches are roundtables about whatever the room is stuck on: selling, hiring, pricing, raising money.
After 3pm
Deliberately open
Sessions end early on purpose. What’s left is dinner, free time, and the conversations people end up describing later.
Who should be in the room
Three kinds of people.
- 01
Founders building for churches, ministries, and faith-driven organizations
- 02
Operators scaling beyond founder-led growth
- 03
Investors and ecosystem builders serving this market
Spouses welcome
Bring your spouse.
About 30% of 2026 attendees brought their spouse. This year, spouses are invited to the welcome dinner, so the trip can start together.
Sessions end at three each day, which leaves the afternoons and most evenings open, and adding a few extra days to the trip is easy.
If your spouse wants to join the sessions, they’ll need a +1 ticket.
Four days together
