We could not agree more on the sentiment of live events versus virtual. We have found that connecting in person remains a powerful way to build relationships. Virtual events, such as webinars, are an excellent additional to the approach of working with peers, customers, partners and prospects – but not a replacement for the face to face meeting.

We are participating in several of the events mentioned – and often it is one of the only opportunities to meet in a targeted way with folks in a particular discipline on a large scale (compliance, practice management, technology). Well worth the investment.

RIA conferences are only inconvenient if one attends and gets low returns in terms of new ideas, connections, and business opportunities.

As a speaker for many RIA events, I work hard to embed high value and practical takeaways in each of my presentations. I hope attendees appreciate learning something new about how to apply technology to their businesses and conference organizers benefit from positive feedback and increased attendance at future events because of the quality content provided.
