CEDAR
RAPIDS, Iowa, July 10,
2024 /CNW/ -- World Financial Group (WFG)
today announced that Olympic and X Games gold-medalist snowboarder
Shaun White will headline the
company's Convention of Champions on July
17, 2024. This year's conference theme, "Win as One,"
focuses on inspiring WFG's independent agents to build and grow
their own business with a common goal: to ensure no family is left
behind in opportunities to secure their financial future.
"Shaun has the 'ultimate champion' mentality," said Todd Buchanan, president of WFG. "It's not luck
that he holds more world records and more Olympic gold medals than
any other snowboarder. His success did not come overnight; it was
built by overcoming adversity, setting and exceeding goals and
believing there are no limits. I am thrilled for him to join our
stellar program lineup. Together we will win as one."
When White retired from competition in 2022, he left a legacy
that permanently impacted the viewership of action sports. He is
now a successful entrepreneur and philanthropist, launching an
active lifestyle brand, WHITESPACE in early 2022. He has partnered
with We Are Camp, investing in multiple youth-based action sports
camps in Oregon, and last month,
he announced the launch of The Snow League, the first ever
professional sports league in halfpipe snowboarding and
freeskiing.
The conference is also an opportunity to hear from WFG's
top-producing agents Xuan Nguyen,
Daniel Fombo, Raja Dhaliwal and Penney Ooi. These WFG
independent agents will showcase how they have helped people build
financial stability and better their lives.
Additional speakers Scott
Harrison, founder of charity: water, and Dr. Joe Coughlan, head of the AgeLab at the
Massachusetts Institute of Technology,
will join the stage alongside other featured guests throughout the
four-day program.
WFG's 2024 Convention of Champions brings together more than
33,000 attendees from across North
America. The sold-out event will be the largest in-person
WFG audience in the program's history. The program is designed to
inspire professional and personal development, expand networks and
provide well-deserved recognition.
