GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. — January 2026 — Configura will host Excelerate, its annual flagship in-person event for the global CET ecosystem, on March 3–4, 2026, at DeVos Place here. Designed specifically for CET stakeholders, Excelerate brings together industry experts to guide the direction of the Configura CET platform.

Excelerate is intentionally positioned as more than a traditional conference. Rather than focusing on product marketing or broad industry inspiration, the event is structured around collaboration, knowledge sharing, and practical application. Participants gather to exchange best practices, discuss real-world use cases, and go beyond networking to provide insight on how CET is used today and its future. Focusing on the customer community that creates and distributes content for the user community, Excelerate creates alignment with the part of the Configura sphere that strengthens the user experience regardless of what manufacturer’s product they are specifying.

“Excelerate is all about bringing our CET ecosystem under one roof to collaborate, share ideas, and shape the future together,” said Brooke Snow, Head of Sales, North America at Configura. “When customers and partners connect face to face, it creates meaningful conversations that help shape what’s next.”

The primary audience for Excelerate includes CET customers, manufacturers, extension owners and developers, service, utility, and development partners, advisory board members, and invited industry stakeholders, as well as prospective customers evaluating long-term investment in the CET platform. With a schedule that includes invite-only advisory board meetings, a community happy hour, and a full day of informative sessions, the event’s scale and structure are intentionally more focused than large trade shows, supporting deeper peer-to-peer engagement and more productive discussion.
