The nation’s largest home builders will gather for the 2021 Builder 100 event Sept. 8 to 10 at the Ritz-Carlton Laguna Niguel in Dana Point, California. The annual conference will be back in person and will provide unparalleled content and industry networking.
In the keynote presentation, online data expert Jen Golbeck will dive into how to create trust online. A professor at The University of Maryland, College Park, Golbeck will share with the audience how to understand home buyers’ interactions with social media, social networks, trust and artificial intelligence, and the way that those interactions inform buying decisions.
The CEO Power Panel features an elite group of 2021’s Builder 100 leaders—Sheryl Palmer, chairman and CEO of No. 5 Taylor Morrison; Phillippe Lord, CEO of No. 6 Meritage Homes; Patrick Zalupski, CEO and founder of No. 24 Dream Finders Homes; and Bob Hawksley, CEO of No. 33 Fischer Homes. They will share the challenges that seem daunting, the ways they are creating a competitive edge, and what the future holds for their organizations.
In addition, don’t miss the one-on-one conversation with Steve Alloy, president and CEO of Stanley Martin Homes, No. 21 on the Builder 100 list and the 2021 Builder of the Year, and a discussion around the critical topic of health and well-being at home with Dr. Pascal Goldschmidt, chief medical officer at No. 2 Lennar.
Other panels at the three-day event will tackle the move to online home buying, reimagined finance and capital, the benefits of a diverse team, locking down on land, reinventing the supply chain, and the state of M&A.
