The Top 5 Reasons To Attend IRTA’s Beaver Run Conference

IRTA Members At Prior IRTA Conference

Top trade exchanges from around the world will be at this year’s Beaver Run Resort Conference in Breckenridge, Colorado to network, brain storm and learn new ways to grow their exchanges and improve our industry.

Consider these five trending trade exchange topics that will be covered at IRTA’s Conference:

1) Multiple trade exchanges have already implemented an AI broker component that is improving trading. AI is also being used for onboarding, as a productivity tool for staff, for analyzing technical issues and much more.
2) More exchanges are shifting to a combined broker/sale person model
that have proved to be successful.
3) Other exchanges have developed creative credit line extension procedures to reduce the percentage of client defaults.
4) Lead generation is critical to increase your sales – a round table discussion will identify and explain the best lead generation approaches.
5) Legislative risks to trade exchanges are still an issue – a discussion of those risks and what you can do to protect your exchange will be addressed.

Beaver Run is a fabulous family friendly resort and Breckenridge a charming mountain town. You can enjoy hiking, rafting, fishing, golf, shopping, fun restaurants, art galleries and more. There really is something for everyone. And IRTA is offering a great deal on shoulder rooms – so make it a vacation by arriving early and staying late!
