Insurance agency conferences
The conferences worth leaving the book for, with the dates and venues each organiser has confirmed. Three of the big ones land in the same week at the end of September, in three different cities, so this is a calendar you want in front of you before booking anything.
5 upcoming · dates confirmed with each organiser
- Official siteConferenceSeptember 27 to October 1, 2026
Applied Net 2026
Gaylord National Resort & Convention Center, Washington, DC
A user conference, not an industry one. If your agency management system is Applied or EZLynx it is the most practically useful week of the year; if it is not, there is very little reason to go.
Best for: Agencies running Applied, EZLynx or Ivans
- Official siteTrade showSeptember 29 to October 1, 2026
ITC Vegas 2026
Mandalay Bay, Las Vegas, NV
The largest insurance innovation event there is, and the room skews to vendors, carriers and investors rather than working agents. Go to see what is coming, not to be sold to, because you will be.
Best for: Anyone buying or building insurance technology
- Official siteConferenceSeptember 30 to October 3, 2026
Big "I" Fall Leadership 2026
Hilton Baltimore Inner Harbor, Baltimore, MD
More association governance than practice management, which suits some owners and bores others. Overlaps both Applied Net and ITC Vegas, so late September forces a choice between three.
Best for: Independent agency principals and association leaders
- Official siteConferenceNovember 9 to 11, 2026
NAIFA Protectors Vegas 2026
The Venetian, Las Vegas, NV
NAIFA's national event, and new in name: Protectors replaces APEX, so a search for the old name will send you to a page that no longer applies. Life and financial rather than property and casualty.
Best for: Life, health and financial advisors
- Official siteConferenceApril 7 to 9, 2027
Big "I" Legislative Conference 2027
Washington, DC
Advocacy rather than practice management. Three days on Capitol Hill, and the only reason to go is that you want to be in those rooms.
Best for: Independent agency principals
Dates and venues are taken from each organiser and were last checked in August 2026. Conferences move, so confirm on the official site before booking anything. If we have a date wrong or an event missing, tell us and we will fix it.
While you are here
The follow-up after a conference is where the leads actually go cold.
You come home with a stack of cards and a week of catching up. See what Wysera does for insurance agents the rest of the year.
