This week more than 1,800 advisors and recordkeepers, more than 1,500 sponsors (including fund firms and a host of others), and of course plenty of event staff and Charles Schwab employees, descended on Boston for the 25th annual IMPACT conference for Schwab's RIA allies. For the closing party last night, Schwab rented out the Museum of Fine Arts Boston and brought musicians (including Kelley James), food, and of course drinks into a host of different rooms.
