THE NHL Comes to AAPEX
2025 Keynote Session
Hear Competitive Insights From Hockey Legend Wayne Gretzky at the AAPEX 2025 Keynote Breakfast
As the NHL’s all-time leading point scorer, hockey hall-of-famer Wayne Gretzky needs almost no introduction. During his 20 impressive seasons on the ice, he set numerous records that have yet to be surpassed — and today, he is a TV personality, head coach, and philanthropist with many hard-earned lessons on the art of competitiveness to share.
Secure your spot for the AAPEX 2025 Keynote Breakfast on Tuesday, November 4, when Gretzky sits down for a one-of-a-kind discussion that centers on the mental strategies he used to take on what he’s called “bigger, stronger, faster guys” and win. With universal insights on flexibility, innovation, and letting go of fear, the conversation promises to offer actionable advice everyone in the automotive aftermarket industry can use to sharpen their own essential competitive edge.
