The Quay

September 22, 2026 · 8:00 AM – 4:30 PM
September 23, 2026 · 8:00 AM – 12:00 PM

The room matters just as much as the stage. The Quay was chosen on that same principle: a space designed to expand what's possible and to keep advisors in the center of what's happening.

Evening · Dinner Event

Dinner at AERA

September 22, 2026 · 5:30 PM · 38th Floor, Toronto

Dinner at AERA keeps the day going. Sitting above the city, advisors who spent the day working through the same question sit down at the same table, because the people you build alongside matter as much as anything said on stage.

One King West Hotel.

Experience One King West Hotel, one of Toronto's most acclaimed boutique hotels, highly regarded for its ambience, luxury amenities and award-winning customer service.

Ideally located in the heart of downtown Toronto at the corner of King and Yonge streets. Settle into a sophisticated suite in the historic Dominion Bank Building or Toronto's famed "Sliver" tower.
