With Envestnet Summit 2023 – Elevate in the books, we thank all the advisors who joined us in Denver to elevate their practice by enabling the Intelligent Financial Life.

From more than 100 exhibitors in our Expo Hall to thought-provoking keynote sessions and various learning tracks, Envestnet Elevate provided insights, training, and networking opportunities to help advisors elevate their practice.

Here’s a recap of what we covered.

Empowering a Differentiated RIA Business Model

To start this session, I reviewed RIA industry trends, competitive pressures, and potential responses for firms to consider. At Envestnet, our goal is to engage more efficiently and effectively with RIAs than ever before. From our Tamarac technology platform to our financial wellness ecosystem that helps connect every facet of a client’s finances, we help RIAs differentiate their practice and drive growth.

Consolidation and the emerging influence of large, well capitalized firms is adding to competitive pressures. The industry average size for an RIA firm has more than doubled over the last 5 years.1

Dedicated RIA Track

Our dedicated RIA Track included Tamarac Deep Dive training, a Tamarac Roadmap update, and insights about the Power of Envestnet’s Ecosystem. This track also had a variety of other sessions to help RIAs learn more about industry trends and additional opportunities available as Envestnet | Tamarac clients.

In our Deep Dive sessions, we covered the following:

  • Unlocking our new Client Portal experience
