Ok, you get the idea. People who have attended the conference in the past enjoyed themselves, obtained valuable information and want to return year after year.

The theme of this year’s conference will be EDUCATE – EMPOWER – ENLIGHTEN. In this era of uncertainty in the housing market, it’s more important than ever to be able to prove the worth of your knowledge and expertise. We’ll showcase the latest technology and trends you need to know about to stay current and one step ahead of today’s consumer. Our conference catalyst, Thom Singer, is a new addition this year and he will demonstrate the importance of networking and making valuable contacts at The BIG e and why you shouldn’t just sit all alone with your smart phone.

Over the next several weeks, we’ll provide detailed information regarding the speakers and sessions available at this year’s event, so stay tuned.
