Intimate Gathering. Big Ideas. Meaningful Connections.

Intimate settings that inspire Big ideas and forge Powerful Partnerships.

The K12 Facilities Forum is…

Invite-only

Those who attend are handpicked especially for the retreat. These are the people you want to spend time with.

Intentionally intimate

Limited to 250 people so it’s casual, laid back and conducive to the birth of new ideas.

Off the beaten path

Away from the stress and mundanities of your day-to-day, closer to a new perspective.

IT’S HOW coming together WITH YOUR PEERS should feel like.

The Experience

PROVOCATIVE CONTENT

A mix of TED-style talks, fireside chats, and unfiltered conversations with bold thinkers from inside and outside the industry. You’ll be challenged, surprised, and inspired. This isn’t panel after panel—it’s perspective-shifting content you won’t forget.

AUTHENTIC NETWORKING

Forget the forced mingling. Here, connection happens when you’re doing something memorable—something you’ll actually talk about after. We design experiences around the vibe of each location, so instead of awkward small talk, you’re swapping stories on a mountaintop, beach, or somewhere unexpected.

VENDOR MATCHMAKING

The K12FF partners with a selection of carefully curated vendors. Review ahead of time, then schedule pre-planned, 20-minute 1:1 meetings with only those you want to meet with. No more wandering trade show floors and dodging sales pitches.

DEEP DIVE ROUNDTABLES

You know this: great ideas come from candid, open conversations. Join small group discussions where you can share and learn with your peers. Real conversations about the biggest challenges you’re all facing.
