We had a fantastic time attending Auction Academy’s Class 8 Gala! ?? Jacob Warren, a member of IAG’s Ambassador Committee, caught up with Class 8 students to hear about their auction journey—along with some fun questions like, "Who would you rather be stuck on an island with: Penny, Jiles, or Charlie?" Watch the video to find out their answers! ???? #AuctionAcademy #Class8Gala #IAG Congratulations, Class 8!??

A huge thank you to everyone who attended our IAG Connect meeting at CAR Conference in San Diego this week! Just a year ago, this room wouldn’t have been filled with the incredible industry leaders we see today. Now, we have many leaders who believe in IAG's vision and its impact on the industry. We had meaningful discussions about new organizational goals and how we can be a stronger support system for independent auctions. Their insights and ideas are invaluable, and we are committed to making a difference.???? Thank you for your dedication to the auction industry!
