The CSIA 2026 Conference brings system integrators together to address the realities of a rapidly changing business and technology landscape. As firms face evolving customer expectations, workforce challenges, and emerging technologies, leaders must make informed decisions and adapt with confidence.
Centered on the 2026 theme, Navigating Change, the conference delivers practical, peer-driven education designed to help integration firms stay competitive and resilient. Through keynotes, panels, workshops, and real-world case studies, attendees will gain insight into what is next and how to prepare for it.
This year, CSIA is proud to feature two impactful keynote speakers who will help system integrators assess their current operational models and the wider environment:
- Dan Heath is the #1 New York Times bestselling co-author (or author) of six beloved business books: Switch, Made to Stick, Decisive, The Power of Moments, Upstream, and his latest book, Reset: How to Change What’s Not Working, which debuted in January 2025. In this keynote, Dan will discuss his revolutionary guide to fixing what’s not working – in systems and processes, organizations and companies, and even in our daily lives – by identifying leverage points and concentrating resources to achieve our goals. (Bonus: CSIA will provide all conference attendees a free copy of Reset if requested in advance on your registration form!)
- Alex Chausovsky is a trusted resource and advisor for owners and executives of private-and-publicly-held firms and industry trade associations on analytical, economic, geopolitical and business-oriented topics. In this keynote, Alex will discuss Navigating 2026: Economic Trends, Policy Insights, and Strategic Tactics to ensure CSIA members have the data they need to adapt.
