HealthSpaces ’26 brings together healthcare design, construction and facilities leadership from health systems across the country for an invite-only retreat at Chateau Elan, a winery and resort set among rolling vineyards in Braselton, Georgia.
Features include TED-style talks, candid small group discussions and focused one-on-one meetings with solution providers, all in a relaxed environment that’s built for real thinking.
Featured speakers
Patrick Casey, senior vice president of facilities construction & systems engineering at Harris Health, on steering a $3.2 billion capital expansion program and what it takes to build innovative, sustainable facilities inside one of the country’s largest public health systems.
Allison Wilson-Maher, vice president of real estate, design & construction at Penn Medicine, on executing a net-zero energy strategy inside legacy buildings that weren’t designed for it. Practical, hard-won, directly applicable.
Speech Thomas, co-founder and lead singer of Arrested Development, the 2X Grammy Award-winning group behind “Tennessee” and “People Everyday,” brings a keynote unlike any other.
Joining them will be executives from top health systems, including Kaiser Permanente, CVS Health, DaVita, Penn Medicine and more, sharing strategies for navigating capital planning, adaptive reuse and the future of healthcare facilities.
Connections that count
Meaningful conversations happen naturally at HealthSpaces. Pre-scheduled one-on-one meetings with solution providers give both sides time to dig into specific challenges and build relationships that last. Deep-dive roundtables bring together the leaders building and operating healthcare facilities for the kind of straight talk that only happens when the right people are in the room.
Beyond the sessions
HealthSpaces builds in time for shared experiences: an Interactive Team building Challenge, a group run through the Georgia countryside, a Curated Cocktail Trail and an evening Under the Vines at Chateau Elan. The most valuable conversations unfold in moments like these, sparking ideas that continue long after the event ends.
