KING OF PRUSSIA, PA – August 29, 2024 - The American College of Financial Services is proud to announce the 10th annual Military Summit taking place in Philadelphia, PA on September 11, 2024, and the 12th anniversary of the founding of the American College Center for Military and Veterans Affairs. This prestigious event, hosted by the Center for Military and Veterans Affairs, will bring together members of the military community, financial professionals, and allies to honor veteran-scholars, celebrate donors and partners, and provide professional development opportunities.
"We are dedicated to providing our transitioning service members and their spouses with the tools they need to succeed both in and out of uniform," said Phil Easton, CMSgt, USAF (Ret.), Managing Director of the American College Center for Military and Veterans Affairs. "This event is not only about honoring their service but is also about equipping them with the knowledge and resources necessary for their financial and professional futures."
The highlight of the Military Summit will be the presentation of the Soldier-Citizen Award to Major General Suzanne Vautrinot, USAF (Ret.) and dinner at the National Constitution Center. With a distinguished 31-year career in the U.S. Air Force, Major General Vautrinot played a pivotal role in establishing U.S. Cyber Command and has continued to lead in her civilian life as a cybersecurity expert and board member for several prominent organizations.
“Receiving the Soldier-Citizen Award is a profound honor," said Major General Vautrinot. "I am proud to join The American College of Financial Services and its dedicated sponsors in our shared commitment to supporting the military community, and I look forward to celebrating the achievements of our veterans and scholars at this remarkable event."
The Summit underscores The College's steadfast commitment to the Center's mission of empowering those who serve, supporting military members and their spouses through career transition via educational and employment opportunities within the financial services. The day-time portion of the event will be held at the W Philadelphia and feature the Maury Stewart Lecture series, supported by Center Founding Partner and Sponsor Penn Mutual, with keynote speaker Michelle Caruso-Cabrera, CNBC Contributor and CNBC's first Latina Anchor, leading a session called "Building Leaders in the Financial Services Industry."
Following the lecture series, attendees will have access to three additional workshops with subjects on retirement income and wealth management, the impact of Artificial Intelligence on the financial services industry, and culminating with a fireside chat on leadership with the 2024 Soldier-Citizen recipient Major General Suzanne Vautrinot. The event will also feature a networking lounge specifically for Military Resource Groups (MRGs) and scholars, providing a unique opportunity to connect with industry leaders and peers. The Summit is designed to foster professional growth, networking, and a deepened commitment to giving back to the military community.
