5 Reasons You Shouldn’t Miss ICMG Mid-Year: Live at The Vin

On Thursday, August 21, 2025, the Inter-Company Marketing Group (ICMG) will host its annual Mid-Year Meeting at Hotel Vin in Grapevine, Texas. Known for its dynamic networking and high-impact conversations, this half-day gathering is tailored for professionals looking to grow strategic partnerships across the insurance and financial services industries. As a proud ICMG committee member and representative of Agenzee, I’m excited to share why this year’s event—Live at The Vin—offers unique value. Here are the top five reasons you’ll want to be there.

Top 5 Reasons You Shouldn’t Miss ICMG Mid-Year

1. Exclusive Speed Networking Session

At 4:30 PM, you’ll take part in one of ICMG’s most anticipated activities—Speed Networking. In just one hour, you’ll engage in a fast-paced, rotating format that gives you face time with nearly every attendee in the room. Whether you’re hunting for partnerships or just want to raise brand awareness, this session is built to maximize introductions and start meaningful conversations—fast.

2. Intimate, High-Impact Environment

Unlike large conferences where you feel like one of a thousand, the Mid-Year Meeting brings together 75–100 focused attendees. It’s small enough to make real connections but large enough to expand your professional circle. You won’t just collect business cards—you’ll leave with real relationships and tangible next steps.

3. First-Timer Friendly

If you’re new to ICMG, this is the perfect event to get your feet wet. The format is designed to be inclusive and welcoming, with natural icebreakers and warm introductions built right into the evening. You’ll never feel like the odd one out—and there’s a good chance you’ll walk away with a new mentor, partner, or friend.

4. One Evening, Big Return

The Mid-Year Meeting packs all the value of a full-scale conference into a single evening. You’ll register at 3:00 PM, enjoy networking and structured sessions, and wrap up the day with a dinner buffet—all by 6:00 PM. It’s efficient, effective, and perfectly suited for busy professionals who want results without taking days off the calendar.

5. A Destination Worth the Trip

Held at Hotel Vin in charming Grapevine, TX, this event blends convenience with elegance. Located just 10 minutes from DFW Airport, the venue makes travel a breeze. And once you’re there? You’ll enjoy a beautiful space, great food, and the perfect backdrop for relationship-building.

Conclusion:

If you’ve been waiting for the right opportunity to make new connections, grow your visibility, or simply re-engage with the industry, this is it. Grab your seat now—because with this much value packed into one evening, you won’t want to be left out.
