The leading event for insurance brokers

Broker Expo showcased the valuable role that specialist insurers can play in supporting brokers to navigate the diverse challenges and opportunities that their customers face today. The event not only gave me an opportunity to highlight the importance of specialist insurers in filling the knowledge gap, but also to connect with a broad range of brokers from all over the UK to hear their views on the insurance industry.
Paul Cullum Director of strategy and innovation, HSB
I am always very vocal about how I see the Broker Expo event as a true trading event for brokers, there is no other organised event which focuses on the brokers and their challenges throughout the calendar. I think the break-out sessions and the think tank sessions are at a level that suits the small sole trader but are relevant right through to a large independent region.
Each year the event is getting bigger and better but stays true to its core - the independent regional broker!
Lea Cheesbrough CEO, Movo Partnership
Great to be part of Broker Expo, to meet many broker partners and have a different level of conversation. Also enjoyed sparring with old colleagues on the panel relating to the challenge of insurers meeting emerging and evolving demands.
Nick Hobbs Managing director, Allianz
A fantastic event, well attended, lovely set up and enjoyed speaking with our broker partners.
