Westa's Event Schedule
The Annual Westa Travel Summit
combines the hands-on experience of a FAM trip with the connection and learning of a professional conference—hosted on cruise ships or resorts we actively sell. With small-group discussions, one-on-one supplier meetings, and practical business workshops, it’s designed for both agency owners and front-line advisors to build real relationships and take actionable ideas home.
Westa Connections
is a one-day, midweek trade show designed for maximum impact with minimal time away from the office. Held each fall in multiple regional locations, the event features rotating supplier tables, dedicated networking time, and a casual lunch, making it easy for front-line advisors to engage directly with key partners in a focused, efficient format.
Westa’s Educational Partner Webinars
deliver concise, high-impact training in a flexible, accessible format. Offered twice per month, our schedule includes a live single-supplier webinar with Q&A and a prerecorded three-supplier session. It’s a streamlined, scalable way for advisors to stay current and for partners to reach a wider audience year-round.
