The 2026 calendar.

CCS events meet builders where they are with the strategy and people they need to grow. Early-bird pricing is released to the newsletter first.

02

Built for builders who run the company.

01

Real education

Five founders openly share systems, billing, scaling, contracts, org charts, scheduling, cost-plus, operations, brand building, partnerships, and revenue diversification. Nothing is off the table.

02

Intentional rooms

Each schedule is built to balance structured education with Q&A, networking, community building, and evening experiences. You leave with clarity, systems, and relationships that move your business forward.

03

Collaboration over competition

CCS exists because the housing industry rises faster when founders trade playbooks instead of guarding them. The community keeps running between events — peer access, private channels, year-round.

"Nothing was off the table. They opened the books — billing, contracts, org charts, the expensive lessons. I came in thinking I needed better marketing. I left realizing I had a pricing problem."

FAQ

Frequently asked.

What is Contractor Coalition Summit?

A coalition-led conference series for builders, contractors, and creators. Each event blends focused teaching sessions from the five founders with open conversations, hands-on strategy workshops, and real examples you can apply to your business the next week.

When and where?

Three events in 2026 — IBS Meetup Vegas (Feb 16), Crash Course Minneapolis (Sept 15), Charlotte Summit (Nov 6–9). The flagship is the Charlotte summit.

Who should attend?

Builders, contractors, designers, and operators running real construction businesses — anyone with an interest in growing the business, brand, and operating system behind their build. Past attendees range from solo owner-operators to firms north of $25M.

How much does it cost?

Each summit has tiered packages — Black, Purple, Orange VIP, Alumni, and Guest. Early-bird pricing is released to the newsletter first. See the events page for current tickets.

Are sessions recorded?

The room is the product. The founders teach things on stage they wouldn't say on a podcast. Presentation decks and the digital asset library are included in Purple, Orange, and Alumni packages — the conversations don't leave the room.

How do I become a sponsor?

If your brand serves builders — software, materials, finance, insurance, suppliers — head to the Sponsor page. Sponsorships are limited per event and stretch beyond the room into the CCS podcast, social, and event media.

Early-bird tickets drop first to the list.
