Industry Summit Extends Early Bird Deadline
DALLAS — Organizers of the upcoming Industry Summit have extended the early bird registration deadline, giving attendees until midnight this Friday, Aug. 18, to enjoy a $100 discount. Industry Summit is scheduled for Sept. 11-14 at the Gaylord Texan Resort & Convention Center.
“We extended our deadline because we experienced a surge in registrations last Friday,” said David Gesualdo, show chair and publisher of F&I and Showroom and Auto Dealer Today. “So now we’re giving attendees until this Friday to take advantage of early-bird pricing. So go online and register for what promises to be an information-packed event.”
Industry Summit 2017 is co-located with The Best Training Day Ever and includes F&I Think Tank, the Special Finance Conference, Compliance Summit and Automotive Compliance Specialist certification by Automotive Compliance Education (ACE). Attendees holding a full show pass are welcome to attend any session on the agenda, including ACE certification and BTDE, for no additional charge.
