About the event
The only industry event built by the people who do the work
Agent Summit is the only event designed by the same people it is held for: the professionals who carry F&I results and dealership profitability across the country.
The education program covers every side of running an agency — training and developing F&I professionals, recruiting dealers, building the agency itself, and reinsurance. It is assembled by an advisory board of leading agents and industry executives.
At the Summit you will be able to
- Meet your peers across the industry.
- Get up to speed on what is genuinely new in the market.
- Earn the Automotive Compliance Professional certification from Automotive Compliance Education — at no additional cost.
- Gather intelligence on current and future products, developments and trends.
- Sharpen your entrepreneurial and management skills.
- See how the best agents become advisors and indispensable partners to their dealers.

Why attend
Why this event exists at all
Agent Summit grew out of a simple claim: independent automotive general agents are the engine of retail and auto finance. They deliver profit to dealers and to F&I product providers while protecting the buyer from unnecessary financial burden.
Competition in this segment is hard, and success depends on factors outside your control: a plateau in new-vehicle sales, market consolidation, and the activity of regulators and plaintiffs' attorneys.
To deal with that reality, Agent Summit brings agents, agency owners, trainers, compliance and reinsurance specialists and industry leaders into one place — to learn, compare notes and plan.
Agent Summit may not be the only industry event on your calendar — but it is the only one designed by agents, for agents.
