Forum 400 (formerly The International Forum) was founded in 1973 to fill a gap in the marketplace for free exchange of innovative ideas and high-level planning expertise among top producers in the life insurance profession.
From its inception, Forum 400 has been an elite group of top life insurance producers from throughout the country and some of the brightest minds in the business — willing to share with fellow members their innovative ideas for merchandising life insurance.
Forum 400’s “By Invitation Only” membership ensures unfettered access to competitive intelligence and innovative client solutions for the purpose of heightening success for all members.
Unique knowledge-sharing opportunities such as Forum 400 Annual Meetings stress creativity and leading-edge ideas. While Forum 400 values its Industry Partners, the association does not answer to any corporate sponsors or industry groups — only to its valued membership. Annual Meeting speakers know they must fully disclose their ideas and that they can be challenged from the session room floor. In the entire industry, there is no other organization that looks so deeply for the truth and that shares this breadth of content from its speakers.
Forum 400 also provides additional growth and knowledge opportunities through study groups, newsletters and other insightful communications featuring contributions and ideas authored by members and members-only online tools.
Forum 400 created a video for its 35th anniversary in 2008, which spotlights the association’s rich heritage and unique value proposition of uninhibited member-to-member sharing. Click the screen shot at right to watch the video, which features:
Members who are invited into Forum 400 each have a unique story to tell, but one thing is for certain — the collective dedication to uphold the association’s culture of sharing and individual contribution.
