CONVO 2026
October 14-16
Pere Marquette | Civic Center
Peoria, IL
It's more than a conference. It's where Illinois' independent insurance community comes together.
As Big I Illinois' premier annual event, CONVO brings agency professionals, company partners, and industry leaders together for three days of learning, collaboration, and meaningful conversations that help move businesses forward.
The insurance industry never stands still — and neither should we.
Whether you're searching for practical ideas, exploring emerging technology, strengthening relationships, or discovering new ways to better serve your clients, CONVO connects you with the people, products, and ideas shaping the future of our industry.
From nationally recognized keynote speakers and timely educational sessions to the largest insurance tradeshow in the Midwest, you’ll find opportunities to learn, connect, discover, and grow.
Come for the education. Stay for the conversations. Leave with ideas that make a difference.
The Peoria Civic Center has also implemented a new bag policy. All attendees will be subject to search. Clear bags are encouraged to speed this process along. Click here for more details about the bag policy for the Civic Center.
I’ve been fortunate enough to have attended the Big I Illinois conference for over 20 years. I always come away with valuable industry insights, new tools to incorporate into our agency and refreshed insurance carrier relationships. But the most enjoyable part is reconnecting with so many insurance agency peers. If you’re committed to being a professional in our industry, it’s an event you must attend!
