Following the success of last year's Meet the MGA event presented by IBANS and the Insurance Institute of Nova Scotia (IINS) an expanded “Meet the Market” will be offered this year!  Join us for an engaging afternoon of industry insights, at one of the city’s most dynamic venues – the Steele Wheels Motor Museum!

The afternoon will begin with a panel featuring representatives from the Canadian Association of Managing General Agents (CAMGA), the Insurance Bureau of Canada (IBC), the Insurance Brokers Association of Canada (IBAC) and the Insurance Institute of Canada (IIC) spotlighting the latest industry updates and offering an inside look at what’s on the horizon.  These valuable insights will help attendees stay informed and ahead of emerging trends over the coming year.

The rest of the afternoon will be dedicated to a mini-tradeshow featuring incredible exhibitors, including top insurance companies, and members of the MGA community and other key industry partners.  This event is designed to help brokers build valuable connections and network with contacts across the industry.
