LAS VEGAS — Organizers of Agent Summit 2012 announced that Gregory Arroyo, executive editor of F&I and Showroom magazine, has agreed to return as advisory board chair for second annual event, which is scheduled for March 12–14 at Caesars Palace in Las Vegas.


“Last year’s board did an amazing job in making sure our agenda addressed the issues impacting agents and their customers,” Arroyo said. “That’s why I’m excited to chair the board again this year. There are a lot of issues we need to discuss, and the agent community plays a critical role in making sure dealers are educated on issues affecting them.”
