This isn't a save-the-date anymore. It's almost here.

The 2026 FBMA Women's Summit is just weeks away, and this is not just another industry event — this is the moment. Three days where the most influential women in construction, development, manufacturing, architecture, and the skilled trades come together under one roof to connect, celebrate, and set the tone for what's next.

Powered by Built America Magazine and D&A Construction Advisors LLC, this Summit has been built to be unforgettable — the kind of experience that reminds you exactly why you fell in love with this industry in the first place.

Think powerhouse conversations. Real connections. Recognition that's long overdue. And a room full of women who aren't waiting for permission to lead — they already are.

📍 Margaritaville Resort, Kissimmee, FL
📅 September 16–18, 2026

If it's not on your calendar yet, now's the time. This is where the future of the industry gathers — and you don't want to just hear about it after the fact.

Built America Magazine is proud to help power this Summit. See you there.

This isn't your typical industry conference.

The 2026 FBMA Women's Summit, Margaritas & Motivation, is three days at Margaritaville Resort Orlando, built specifically for women in construction, building materials, and the trades. Not a side panel at someone else's event. Not an afterthought on the agenda. The whole thing.

It's the first summit of its kind in the Florida Building Material Association's 105-year history, powered by Built America Magazine and D&A Construction Advisors LLC.

September 16–18. Real connection, real leadership development, and yes, a little fun along the way.

Registration is still open.

How many women do you think work in construction in the U.S. today? The real number is over 1.3 million — and growing every year.

Built America Magazine is spotlighting them with Women Building the Future, a special edition built for women in construction, women-owned construction businesses, women in building materials, women contractors, and women leading in manufacturing and development.

It debuts live at the 2026 FBMA Women's Summit — September 16–18 at Margaritaville Resort Orlando, Kissimmee, Florida — in partnership with the Florida Building Material Association and D&A Construction Advisors LLC.

This edition reaches 278,000+ construction and building materials professionals nationwide. That's a national stage most companies never get access to.

A few feature spots remain. If your story belongs in these pages, now's the time.

She's not just watching the biggest real estate shift in a generation. She's leading through it.

Rena Kliot, Broker and Owner at Pulse, is one of the women featured in our upcoming Women Building the Future special edition, launching live at the 2026 FBMA Women's Summit, September 16–18, at Margaritaville Resort Orlando, and her read on the New York-to-South Florida migration is exactly why.

"South Florida's growth story is no longer a short-term trend. It's a structural shift."

No state income tax. Land availability in New York can no longer be offered. A talent pool that keeps growing. From Citadel's headquarters move to Miami amid the surge in industrial, multifamily, and mixed-use development across Palm Beach County and Fort Lauderdale, Rena's expertise is shaping how this region gets built.

This is what Women Building the Future looks like: women leading with authority in the rooms where these decisions get made.

Full feature coming soon.
