2 min to read


LAS VEGAS — Organizers of the annual Agent Summit have released the names of the advisory board for the 2016 event, which is scheduled for May 9–11 at the Venetian Palazzo Las Vegas.


“The board was assembled utilizing the four past Agent Summit Keynoters and two Provider members that are expected to drive some fresh ideas,” said Randy Crisorio, president and CEO of United Development Systems Inc. (UDS), who will serve as advisory board chair for the fourth consecutive year. “When I reflect on what we’ve been able to accomplish in quality and participation, I’m as excited as ever to get Agent Summit VI in the fast lane.”


Crisorio will be joined by John Braganini, principal of Great Lakes Companies; Larry Dorfman, CEO of EasyCare; Eric Fifield, EFG Companies’ vice president of agency services; Joel Kansanback, president of Automotive Development Group (ADG); and Glen Tuscan, president of Dealer Commitment Services Inc.


In the coming weeks, the board will convene to discuss topics of importance to agents and agency heads and craft an agenda for the three-day event.


“In attempting to meet and exceed the quality of agendas past, Randy and his team have their work cut out for them,” said David Gesualdo, show chair and publisher of Agent Entrepreneur and F&I and Showroom magazines. “Luckily for everyone involved, they are perfectly suited to the task.”


Registration for Agent Summit 2016 is open at the event’s website as well as by phone, fax and email. Attendees who register by April 4 will enjoy a $100 discount. To inquire about sponsorship and exhibition opportunities, contact Eric Gesualdo via email or call 727-612-8826.
