Summit Synchronicity
Annual Bobit agents event returns to its traditional schedule.

The annual event returns to its traditional schedule of days next year.
As the 2026 Agent Summit gets closer, you may be glad to hear it’s returned to the schedule pattern it had for years until a slight departure this year.
After starting this year’s event with the AEX on Saturday and Sunday followed by Agent Summit Sunday night through Tuesday, next year the schedule will start Sunday night, April 12, with AEX through Monday, then pick up with Agent Summit Monday night and running through Wednesday, April 15.
The reversion to Sunday through Wednesday is the same schedule of days that event guests had come to expect in prior years.
The 15th annual summit will be held alongside the Ethical F&I Managers Conference for the second straight year in an arrangement many participants have found convenient and value-packed.
By returning the summit to its traditional schedule of days after the slight tweak this year, the organizers of Agent Summit aim to clear up any confusion for those attending the event designed for agencies of all permutations.
The summit and the EFI conference will be at The Cosmopolitan in Las Vegas, a popular venue among prior years’ participants.
Summit program features will include the Reinsurance & Participation Symposium, the Dealers’ Choice Awards presentation, and the annual F&I Hall of Fame induction.
It won’t be long till the time for industry colleagues to gather together in a concentrated opportunity to learn and grow. We look forward to seeing many of you in Vegas!
