Professionals In Paradise 2026
Gaylord Palms Resort · Orlando, Florida
Four days. 100+ business leaders. One room. Not a conference where you collect business cards. PIP is where the relationships that change your business actually form.

⏳ Event Starts In
We made a deliberate decision years ago: PIP will never become a trade show. When the same group of business leaders shares four days together , meals, pool parties, real conversations, you leave knowing people by name. That's by design.
The intentional intimacy is why attendees come back. It's why sponsors sell out. It's why the connections made at PIP turn into real deals and lasting partnerships.
Real Relationships
You'll know nearly everyone in the room by Sunday. That's by design.
Business Leaders Only
Every seat is a Florida business owner, entrepreneur, or executive.
High-Energy Program
Keynotes, panels, workshops, and parties, every hour is designed.
Luxury Setting
Gaylord Palms, water park, world-class dining, stunning atriums.
David PowerTalk · Transformational Speaker
David PowerTalk Solomon opens Friday morning with a keynote built specifically for Florida's business community, high-energy, practical, and genuinely transformative. Then a full day of expert panels and workshops begins.
