The SPARK Institute, Inc. app for iPhone and iPad

The SPARK FORUM is the most important gathering of industry innovators, thought leaders, and C-suite-level executives in the retirement industry. SPARK brings together leaders from all core business areas and disciplines – CIOs and senior IT leaders, legal and compliance, audit and risk, operations, CMOs and public relations, sales, service, and business development – as the singular voice for the industry on issues of policy, regulation, and privacy. Part of SPARK’s unique value lies in the communities that make up our organization. Our members are industry innovators, thought leaders, and C-suite level executives that come to SPARK to achieve tangible results and move the defined contribution market forward. Our organization has a rich history of establishing best practices, industry leadership, education, and public advocacy to strengthen retirement security in America. We work regularly with legislators and regulatory agencies including the DOL, IRS, Treasury, SEC, and the GAO, to educate them on critical issues facing our industry and shape policy positions. Leading the industry, we help our members grow their business, shape the industry, innovate and engage with new ideas and each other. We provide a forum to share ideas, make important connections and build mutually beneficial, long-term partnerships.
