At our conferences and meetings throughout the year, we provide our members opportunities to improve their professional skills and familiarize themselves with developments relative to their field. You have the chance to show them how your company can make their activities more successful. Sponsorships allow you to shape the image of your company and to impress upon our membership your commitment to the reinsurance industry. Through sponsorships, you can increase your visibility and prestige, as well as enhance your business relationships. Likewise, sponsorships at IRU educational events, which range in size from 75-200 attendees, provide an excellent opportunity for you to network with those you most want to reach. We can help you select the event that best puts you in touch with your target audience.

Corporate sponsorships support the IRU in efforts to extend the number of educational programs and services offered, to host special programs, to support the Journal of Reinsurance and to fund the IRU College Internship Program.
