Introducing a New Offering at the 2022 Exit Planning Summit
The 2022 Exit Planning Summit is the premier conference for professional advisors who are committed to working with business owners, accelerating business value, aligning personal and financial strategies for the business owner, and meeting the top CEPAs in the profession today. We have three days filled with excellent speakers, collaborative case study sessions, and engaging Power Sessions. This year, we are introducing a new session to the Summit. On Sunday, May 1, we will host ten Learning Labs with valued industry partners.
Kicking off the Exit Planning Summit
The Exit Planning Summit Learning Labs are designed to give professional advisors access to lucrative opportunities, resources, partners, and tools to accelerate their practice. These sessions will advance their knowledge in the exit planning profession within the Value Acceleration Methodology.
Learning Labs are a must for any advisor looking for their next referral partner, revenue-generating opportunity, or the tools and resources you need to implement exit planning and value acceleration. Additionally, they offer you exposure to potential key members of your collaborative team and new strategies to implement in your practice.
