Opening Keynote & Reception
The opening keynote offered a unique perspective from Tucker Bryant, relating his experience in Silicon Valley.
Tucker shared his journey from innovating on the tech side to transforming in business through creative ways, driven to pursue an answer to one question: how can we unlock the doors to innovation and tear down the comfort zones? From hard-hitting lessons shared to creative exercises on-stage, Tucker captivated the audience, leaving words of wisdom, out of the box exercises and new ways of thinking that every business can benefit from.
A Tailored Experience
Highly personalized and customized, attendees received a curated agenda of interactive presentations, benefited from 1:1s, and participated in numerous networking activities. Dealerships explored a spectrum of auto retail solutions tailored to their specific needs and business objectives.
“I was able to get to know vendors that I normally would not meet,” said Denny Hodges, Werner Automotive.
DealerPoint’s innovative format earned praise from dealers and vendors alike for its efficiency, interactive activities, and opportunities for knowledge-sharing, best practice exchange, and forward-thinking dialogue.
“Great way to learn more about industry trends and innovations while networking with peers and solution providers,” stated Nora Minichino, Pohanka Automotive.
