A New Generation of Learning, Relationship Building, and Success

What's New

All The Latest News

Many of the XPX – Exit Planning Exchange Chapters are launching unique membership and programming offerings for young and/or emerging professionals. 

This is an important constituency for XPX because these individuals represent the next generation for the advisory firms that are XPX members and sponsors—and the professionals who will support the next generation of member and sponsor clients.

Emerging professionals are forward-thinking people interested in expanding their skills. They are generally earlier in their exit planning careers (maybe early in overall career) and would benefit from a comfortable place to learn and network with other emerging professionals. This is less about age and more about experience level with exit planning.

This page includes information about who is involved at this level and a calendar of current and past events. 

Connect with and learn from seasoned experts in a variety of exit planning specialties.

Access and create your own customized content through XPX’s Knowledge Exchange.

Keep abreast of new trends and information that will impact the next generation of exit planning.

Develop personal relationships with like-minded young professionals who share your values and aspirations for success.

Just starting to build your advisory career? Many XPX Chapters now offer unique membership opportunities and programs to help younger and/or emerging professionals connect with each other, increase knowledge, and build relationships to accommodate the next generation of middle market clients. XPX’s Emerging Professionals can help you –
