Insurance in manufacturing
The manufacturing industry, anywhere in the world, is critical to keeping the economy moving.
Austbrokers proudly welcomed over 250 insurance professionals at the Austbrokers Conference 2022 at the Mantra on Salt Beach, Kingscliff, from Monday 9 May to Wednesday 11 May.
The conference themed ‘Stronger Together’ focused on the strength of the collective group through perseverance and resilience, as well as the strength formed by working with industry leaders.
Over three days, brokers and partners listened to inspiring keynote speakers Alex Nobel and Ben Crowe and participated in educational breakout sessions which were hosted by their insurer partners.
The Austbrokers awards winners were also announced at a Gala Dinner, and these awards recognise those who have demonstrated excellence in the Insurance Broking profession.
