The battle for the future of building automation has moved from hardware to software. The convergence of IT and Operational Technology has created a defining conflict over data, control, and intelligence. Your next choice is no longer just about a vendor; it is a foundational strategic decision that will determine your data sovereignty, security, and competitive edge for the next decade.
Join us at AHR Expo 2026 for “Software Platform Wars.” This critical session cuts through the marketing to provide expert analysis on the core questions: Who truly owns your building’s data in the cloud? Is your platform an open ecosystem or a walled garden? How is AI being deployed for genuine autonomy versus simple analytics? Gain the clarity you need to navigate this turning point and ensure your software platform is a strategic leader, not a liability.
This year we have 16 sessions! Add to your show agenda.
