Join us for the 2024 NIBA Convention
The NIBA Convention is the flagship event of the insurance broking profession.
It’s the meeting place for brokers, partners, suppliers, key regulators and stakeholders,
and our emerging talent.
Join us on this exciting journey over two-and-a-half days, where we will learn, share,
connect, celebrate and unpack the key future trends facing our profession and the wider
insurance sector of Australia.
This year, we invite the insurance broking profession to go "Beyond the Status Quo" at the
NIBA Convention, which will be held from 20 to 22 October at the Adelaide Convention
Centre.
The theme of this year's Convention – "Beyond the Status Quo" – is a call to action for our
broking community to embrace innovation, be adaptable and stay ahead of the curve.
A unique event in the broking calendar, the NIBA Convention brings the breadth and diversity
of the broking community and the wider insurance industry together in one place. With around
800 delegates in attendance, whether you're an insurance broker from a cluster group, small,
independent or an international firm, this is your opportunity to network and engage with
your peers and industry leaders and build professional relationships that can help
strengthen your business.
That's not all - with cutting-edge insights and learning, you'll walk away with practical
insights and strategies to help you tackle the most burning challenges the insurance broking
profession faces today, so that you and your business are well-positioned for tomorrow.
The NIBA Convention is where the spotlight is well and truly on us – the broking profession.
It sets the stage for us to showcase how we're upholding the highest standards of
professionalism to other important stakeholders. Hear from NIBA President Gary Okely about
why this is important and what makes the Convention an unmissable event!
