Stuart Wilson, CEO at Air Group, said: “2020’s National Later Life Adviser Conference starts where we left off in 2019. This next conference, located at the National Space Centre due to growing demand for delegate spaces, is packed full of exciting content, ranging from our new Awards dinner, through a hugely increased range of speakers and subjects, with a surge in provider stands to bring delegates the very latest in products, services and ideas.
“Education and business acceleration are cornerstones of this next event, with a focus on older consumer needs and how to develop your business in this growing demographic.
“We’re also very pleased to announce free entry for all delegates, and so there’s no reason not to miss this Conference or our first ever Air Awards which will take place on the same evening, recognising the very best in our sector. It promises to be an unmissable day and we would like to invite all those lenders, providers and advisers who are active in the later life sector – or who wish to be active – to join us in Leicester in June.”
Danielle Wilson, head of marketing at Air Group, said: “We are truly excited about this year’s event, with both an exciting and informative conference and a lively and prestigious evening awards celebration, we are delivering real value to everyone in the later life industry.
“This year we’re also targeting the divide between the mortgage industry and the later life industry and looking to bridge some of the gaps and fill in some blanks for all concerned. We hope this event will aid advisers in providing a whole lifetime of financial support and advice for their clients, while fine tuning and enjoying their own career progression. We’re looking forward to taking this year’s delegates to infinity and beyond.”
