Survey results are in: CADA Summit back Feb. 12, 2025
April 29, 2024
In the flurry of a jam-packed day like CADA Summit, filled with riveting speakers and important information for dealers, attendees pass along a lot of anecdotal feedback to CADA and to their fellow colleagues.
To help quantify that feedback, the CADA Summit planning team sends out a post-event survey to help gauge the event’s success, and in particular which speakers and topics resonated with the dealers.
The results from this year’s survey were off-the-charts positive.
This year’s event had some of the highest rankings the event has seen with speaker Michael Dunne getting an almost perfect approval ranking of 96.7% from survey respondents. Dunne, CEO of Dunne Insights, presented a detailed overview of the Chinese EV automakers, and their plans for scaling and exporting their products around the world.
Following closely behind, was a political and economic analysis from Globe and Mail columnist Andrew Coyne, and Atlantic Staff Writer David Frum, who scored 95.8% approval from attendees.
The event’s kickoff session which featured Quick Takes interviews with Canadian OEM leaders by moderator Jason Stein, host of the popular Cars & Culture radio show on SiriusXM, was the third highest ranked session with a 90.9% approval from attendees.
The event, held the day before the opening of the Canadian International AutoShow, features a full day of keynotes, panel discussions and networking sessions, and is sponsored exclusively by TD Auto Finance.
Next year’s event takes place Wednesday February 12, 2025. So save the date, and keep an eye on your inbox for registration details as the event always sells out!
