NAILBA Annual Meeting 2026

The meeting is at Gaylord Palms Resort & Convention Center in Kissimmee, Florida.

The listed audience includes independent life brokerage agencies, member-agency executives and staff, carrier leaders, sponsors, and exhibitors.

The organizer cites 800+ member agency principals in attendance, in addition to carriers and solution providers.

It is most useful for principals and senior staff of independent life insurance brokerage agencies, and for carriers and solution providers who want time with those buyers, since the attendee base includes member agency c-suite executives, carrier leadership teams, and 800+ agency principals, carriers and providers. A company with no stake in the independent life brokerage channel would get little from it, and with more than 45 years of history behind the gathering, the room is likely to be dominated by established relationships rather than newcomers.

Attendees at insurance distribution meetings usually wear business casual, with a jacket or blazer for general sessions and evening events, and the Florida resort setting at the Gaylord Palms Resort & Convention Center makes lighter fabrics sensible.
