It’s usually the biggest night of the year on the insurance industry’s calendar in Canada. However, this year it’s different – because two celebrations are better than one.
Yes, the first day of a two-night edition of the Insurance Business Canada Awards is now complete – a day marked by some fantastic in-depth panel discussions with award nominees using the virtual platform, which is allowing brokers, insurers, underwriters and risk professionals to access the event no matter where in Canada they may be.
However, as great as the talks have been there’s no doubt about the number one reason to attend – and that’s seeing your colleagues and peers collect the big prizes after putting in so much effort during what has been such a testing year for us all.
During the first day of celebrations, awards were handed out to celebrate the leading CEO in the country, the leader of change, the BDM of the year, brokerage of the year and more.
So who scooped the top prizes? Here’s the full list of the first day’s winners:
Sharon Sharma, CAA Insurance Company
APOLLO Insurance
APRIL Marine
Rowena Chan, Sun Life
Agile Underwriting Solutions
Jiten Puri, PolicyAdvisor.com
Stephen Billyard, Billyard Insurance Group Inc.
Marisa Berezowski, Aon
