We invite to sponsor and exhibit at the 2018 Biltmore Conference and National Financial Plan Competition to be held at the Biltmore Estate in Asheville, NC. Slated for April 17-19, 2018, the two day conference will bring together IARFC members, non-members and competition finalists from all over the U.S.
During the meeting, attendees will take part in CE presentations, the final judging of the National Financial Plan Competition and the IARFC awards banquet featuring keynote speaker Ric Edelman, RFC®. Scheduled in one of the convention facilities within the Biltmore compound, there are many opportunities to meet and network with financial professionals.
The National Financial Plan Competition is organized through the IARFC for undergraduate students in a curriculum related to Financial Services. They are given a case narrative of a fictional family with an overview of their financial picture. A financial plan is then produced with recommendations for current and future actions. The final phase of the competition will be in person during the Biltmore Conference.
“Participating as a sponsor enables the Association to hold such inspiring events as the International Financial Plan Competition,” advises Wendy Kennedy, IARFC editor. “There are many levels from which to choose and give back to the financial services industry. In this instance, you will also be supporting the next generation of Financial Consultants. Depending on level of commitment – Silver, Gold, Platinum, or Diamond Sponsorship, there will be access to Register ads, Journal of Personal Finance logo listings, email campaigns, exhibit booths and website logo placements.”
Vendor participation is equally important.
“New products and services are of interest to us all,” commented IARFC Chairman H. Stephen Bailey, MRFC. “Our venue is the perfect place to put you in front of Association members.”
The exhibitor prospectus can be found on the IARFC website. Space is available along with conference registration for the price of $2000. Contact Bill Spilman, Innovative Media Solutions at advertising@iarfc.org.
Much can be made of this particular impressive venue for the conference. The legacy of the Biltmore family and the setting of the natural beauty of the North Carolina Smokies, makes for an attractive draw.
