The Summit's keynote speaker is Greg Olsen, FOX NFL analyst and former Carolina Panther tight end.

"It's been 11 years since we last hosted the LendingTree Summit, and we're thrilled to bring our partners together once again," said Doug Lebda, founder, and CEO of LendingTree. "We recognize that we're in the midst of an unprecedented market.

On top of that, we're giving our partners a front-row seat to the Innovation Challenge, with technology demos from companies that we hand-selected and believe could be game changers in the mortgage industry."
