1 min to read


ORLANDO, Fla. — Organizers of the upcoming Industry Summit announced that registration is now open for the event, which will be held Oct. 8–10 at the Caribe Royale Orlando in Orlando, Fla. Industry Summit’s 2018 agenda will include F&I and sales training sessions, Compliance Summit and ACE certification, a host of networking opportunities, and new features such as Technology Shootout and sessions devoted to the R/V segment


Presented by F&I and Showroom and Auto Dealer Today, the “one pass” event remains focused on training, processes, technology, and compliance in an industry defined by change — to vehicles, buying and spending habits, and regulatory priorities. The theme of this year’s Industry Summit is “Protect the Future of F&I,” and the timing is critical, said David Gesualdo, show chair and publisher of F&I and ADT.

“Dealers must rally to protect their profit centers, and it starts with F&I, where deals are closed and the car buyer’s relationship with the service department is cemented,” Gesualdo said. “No threat to that profit center should be taken lightly, and our speakers will set themselves to the task of defending it with every tool in their arsenals.”


Registration for Industry Summit 2018 is open at the event’s website. To discuss sponsorship and exhibition opportunities, contact David Gesualdo at (727) 947-4027 or via email.
