Applications to Attend Acumatica Ascent Partner-Only Event Open Through February 26

Acumatica’s partner ecosystem, a vibrant community of value-added resellers (VARs), ISVs, service and alliance partners, and OEMs, continues to evolve in both size (500+ organizations) and impact. They not only support our mutual customers with their technical expertise and industry experience but are also foundational to achieving our rallying cry: Building the Future of Business, Together.   

High-impact, business-outcome aligned partner education that is ongoing, personalized, engaging, combined with role-based hands-on training are essential elements in empowering our partners to scale their business while providing the best support to the organizations and individuals they serve. 

Following through on our partner education vision, Acumatica announced a new three-day event at Summit 2026: Acumatica Ascent 2026 (August 17–20, 2026). Ascent is dedicated to “Accelerating Partner Success Through Comprehensive Skill Development” and will deliver extensive education and role-based training designed to help partners learn, grow, plan, and succeed. 

By delivering targeted, role- and industry-based education, Ascent accelerates partner capability, execution, and growth across selling, implementing, and making customers successful.

Acumatica Ascent 2026: The Who, What, When, and Where  

Like Acumatica Summit 2026, which showcased how Acumatica ERP is driving customer success, Acumatica Ascent is a unique opportunity to help partners boost business performance by selling better, delivering stronger, and scaling smarter. 

By attending Ascent, you’ll achieve better customer outcomes and sustained success as you work to build and scale a high-performing Acumatica practice. 

If you are an Acumatica VAR, ISV, OEM, service partner, or alliance partner, here’s what you need to know about this first-of-its-kind event. 

Who  

Ascent is designed for partners actively scaling their Acumatica practice. Attendance is application-based and open to our global Partner Community. Space is limited, so apply early. We support targeted onboarding for Presales, Consultants, and technical hires transitioning into Acumatica from other ERP ecosystems, and college hires that join your practice before Ascent.  

We are prioritizing doers with real responsibility — especially roles that expand presales, delivery, and technical capacity. 

Presales / Solution Architects 

• Strengthen Acumatica-centric discovery and solution positioning 

• Lead industry-focused demos and improve win rates 

• Advance platform, ISV, AI, and SaaS architecture skills 

• Ramp new and transitioning hires quickly 

Business Consultants / Services 

• Improve implementation-focused discovery and process design 

• Elevate configuration and industry-edition execution 

• Strengthen automation, AI, and integration strategy 

Developers 

• Expand no/low-code capability on the Acumatica platform 

• Deepen Modern UI, automation, AI, and architecture expertise 

• Build secure, scalable integrations and upgrade-safe extensions 

Practice & Executive Leadership 

• Practice Owners and Delivery Leaders 

• Align sales, services, and technical teams 

• Make smart investment and specialization decisions 

• Strengthen talent strategy and execution discipline 

Executives should attend if they are engaging in practice-owner workshops, making structural decisions, and sponsoring post-event execution. 

Due to the interactive format, attendance is capped at approximately 800 participants. Not all applicants will be approved. Selected attendees will complete pre-work and leave with practical execution plans, including structured 30-60-90 day action plans for priority roles.

Where 

An exciting event deserves an equally exciting environment, and the convenience of Denver as an airport hub makes Acumatica Ascent easy to get to. The stunning Gaylord Rockies Resort and Convention Center, located in Aurora, Colorado near Denver International Airport, will be hosting our premier, learning-rich event, and it’s everything you could hope for in a venue and more.

Situated with a panoramic view of the spectacular Rocky Mountain Front Range, the luxury resort offers attendees breathtaking scenery, amazing meeting spaces, and amenities to fit every person’s interests.

A guestroom block exclusive to Acumatica Ascent attendees has been set aside at a special rate ($259 plus a $28 resort fee per night) for attendees whose application has been approved and once registration is open. Keep in mind that transportation to and from the airport will not be provided, so be sure to plan your transportation needs in advance.
