Highlights from the 2020 T3 Advisor Conference – by Johnny Sandquist

2/24/2020

 
​Every year, the T3 Advisor conference officially kicks off fintech announcement season.

This year’s conference had its share, with no less than twenty companies using the event to announce a new integration, product launch, or feature. Even Morgan Stanley and Franklin Templeton announced their acquisitions of E*TRADE and Legg Mason, respectively, during T3 week (technically those announcements weren’t at the conference, but we’ll count them anyway).

With a move to San Diego, this year’s T3 had a little additional energy around it — both offline, as well as online.

As someone who’s been immersed in advisor tech for over ten years now, I enjoy those sessions and they’re a big reason why I keep coming back to T3.

For me, hearing from a real advisor on stage is a completely different experience than having a company spokesperson recite a few testimonials that have surely passed through the marketing and PR team members’ watchful eyes.
