The conference, exclusively for the 51 IFP Accredited Financial Planning Firms, is being held at the Hilton London Kensington hotel all day.
Around two-thirds of the registered firms are expected to be in attendance today, providing valuable time for networking and sharing ideas.
Financial Planner Online will be covering the keynote sessions of the conference on financialplanneronline.co.uk and will be tweeting sessions via our feed @FPM_Online and the hashtag #greatmindsIFP.
The sessions have been tailored to the needs of the firms and will focus on marketing and sustainable growth.

Speakers include Richard Stradling from Baker Tilly, Jamie Newell from IFA Solutions, Nigel Botterill from Entreprenuers Circle and Daniel Richards from Insight Marketing.
In the afternoon there will be an extended roundtable Q&A session following feedback from last year's conference on how valuable the session was.
The event qualifies for six hours of structured CPD.
The Accredited Financial Planning Firms register was launched at the IFP Annual Conference in 2011 and now includes 51 firms nationwide.
To be recognised as an Accredited Firm, firms must have 50 per cent CFP^CM qualified professionals, provide a Financial Planning proposition, abide by the IFP's Code of Ethics and use Paraplanners.
