With the past 17 months being particularly peculiar, we all could use some sense of normality – and what better way to long for our pre-pandemic days than with the industry’s crème de la crème at this year’s Insurance Business Australia Awards.
The cherry on top would be taking home one, or more, of the biggest prizes of the night. But before the glitz and glamour happening at Shangri-La Sydney on November 12, Insurance Business is proud to reveal the 2021 excellence awardees. You can view the full list below and here.
