Here we go again! Registration for our annual Applied Net® user conference is now open. I hope you’re ready for glitz, glam, and endless excitement because Applied Net 2025 is taking over the vibrant city of Las Vegas from October 6-9. In keeping up with the latest innovations in our industry and the need for better business insights, this year’s theme is (drumroll, please…) the Intelligent Insurance Era. This means our entire event will center around how Applied is investing in AI, data and connectivity technologies to help you make smarter, more forward-thinking decisions. Now that you know the where and when, let’s talk about the what, who, and why.
What can you expect? A lot of the things that make Applied Net great and worth coming back for every year, plus a few new things along the way! There will be hundreds of interactive education sessions, all the latest must-have innovations, tons of networking opportunities with your peers, an inspiring guest keynote speaker and great evening events to give you time to enjoy with friends. Plus, I know you all love some fun swag, so you can expect plenty of goodies this year, too!
Who should attend? The short answer: everyone. The long answer: our program serves up content for all our family brands (looking at you, EZLynx®, Ivans®, and Tarmika™) and for everyone at your agency (from principal to CSR to accountant and everyone in between) – we truly try to make this conference a place for everyone. No matter what technology is your match or what role you play, you’ll find a full deck of ideas, inspiration, and practical tips to apply to your work.
This might be an easy sell to you, but how about your company? I know that registration and travel costs can add up and be a daunting request to your supervisor. So, I've created a list of reasons why the conference is a good investment to help bolster your case to attend Applied Net 2025, advance your professional and personal development, and return an even stronger asset to your company.
6 Reasons Why Applied Net Is Worth the Investment

Insurance is an industry built on relationships, and there’s no better place to make new friends or reconnect with old ones than at Applied Net.

Don’t Believe Me? Here’s Proof from Your Peers
As part of the team that puts on this event with our great partners at the Applied Client Network®, I could talk all day about why I think it’s the best and the place you have to be. Yet, being self-aware, I know I can be a bit biased, so I thought hearing from your peers might mean more!
“Applied Net is always a fantastic way to connect with your fellow peers, Applied product engineers, and vendors. I brought back so many useful tips, workflows, and considerations to my agency that it was well worth the ROI of the trip. I can’t wait to see what’s in store for next year!”Evan Kao, BancFirst Insurance Services
“As always, Applied Net did not disappoint! Our team walked away with a long list of things to be excited about in the coming months. Everything from Epic Browser enhancements to new products and AI integrations. We truly value the knowledge gained and relationships built each year at this event and are already looking forward to Applied Net 2025 in Vegas!”Mitch Reatini, BHS Insurance
“I’ve attended many conferences during my career, and Applied Net nails it every time! I attended Applied Net 2024 and appreciate the wide offering of learning sessions. They are always well-organized and deliver great content. The networking opportunities are endless, and I always walk away with new contacts in the industry.”Kathy Ramirez, Crest Insurance Group
“Applied Net is an invaluable experience that goes beyond just learning about the latest Applied technology updates and has been an investment that has reaped dividends in many ways. Attending has provided me with unparalleled networking opportunities, which has led to collaborations that I haven’t found elsewhere.”Melissa Zornes, OneGroup
These are just a few of the thousands of attendees who’d give Applied Net two thumbs up. There’s a reason why 99% of attendees would recommend this conference to a colleague – come see for yourself.
