2026 Agenda (Tentative)
We're still finalizing our speaker lineup, but below is a preview of the topics and sessions planned for this year's conference at the Omni PGA Frisco Resort.
The agenda is organized into three session formats. During combined sessions, all attendees come together for keynotes and discussions relevant to the broader institutional investment community. During concurrent sessions, attendees choose between dedicated allocator sessions and manager sessions, so each audience can dive deeper into the topics most relevant to them.
