Join generator dealers from across the country for three days of education, connection, and shared insight at the NEGDA 2026 Conference & Annual Meeting.
Our program is intentionally curated to deliver a well-rounded experience, with speakers and sessions designed to touch on a variety of relevant topics impacting generator dealerships today. Rather than focusing on just one area, the conference brings together perspectives from across the business—ensuring there’s value for owners, managers, and team members alike.
While specific sessions are still being finalized, attendees can expect engaging presentations led by experienced professionals and industry experts, all focused on practical takeaways and real-world application.
Equally important is the opportunity to connect. Throughout the event, you’ll have time to engage with fellow dealers, build relationships with trusted industry vendors, and take part in the kind of peer-to-peer conversations that make NEGDA unique.
If you’re looking to gain fresh perspective, strengthen your business, and stay connected to a network of dealers who are committed to improving, this is an event you won’t want to miss.

As customer awareness of generators increases, the desire to run as much as possible is very present. In many cases, soft starts can lower the cost of a back up power or storage system to minimize customers falling out of the “sales funnel” due to higher acquisition cost than expected. It is also about adding value to the customer by providing expert knowledge and advice that will have a long term benefit on their home and experience.
