SPEED Summit 2027 starts on January 15, 2027.

The organizer describes an intended gathering of hundreds of participants.

SPEED Summit 2027 takes place at Sheraton Waikīkī Beach Resort in Honolulu, Hawaiʻi.

The organizer identifies government leaders, permitting agency officials, building industry professionals, and other stakeholders as intended participants.

It is most useful for permitting officials, county building and planning staff, and builders or housing advocates working on Hawaiʻi permitting delays, since speakers include legislators, the Governor's housing specialist and building chiefs from several counties. Developers and policy staff get direct access to the officials who shape permitting rules. Professionals outside Hawaiʻi, or those seeking general construction technology content, would find the focus too local.

Attendees at Hawaiʻi government and building industry events typically wear aloha attire or light business casual, with jackets uncommon, which fits a Waikīkī beach resort in January.
