ITIC Global and the ITIJ Awards go virtual!
Challenging times call for creative measures, so to keep the global travel insurance community connected, ITIC Global will move online for 2020
While the global pandemic has put a temporary halt to most non-essential travel and face-to-face gatherings, connectivity remains at the heart of the International Travel & Health Insurance Conference (ITIC), so we are thrilled to be working with Team ITIC to bring you an innovative new format for this year’s event: ITIC Connected – a virtual conference and awards ceremony that is set to bring the industry together in new and exciting ways.
The agenda is full of inspiring speakers, interactive sessions and networking opportunities, plus some exciting stay-connected socials, with the 2020 ITIJ Awards ceremony rounding off the event – so put 3 to 5 November in your calendar and join us to be part of ITIC history.
On the ITIC Global | Connected agenda
The agenda has been carefully planned and timed to ensure everyone has the opportunity to join in, wherever you are in the world. Our digital platform will deliver thought leadership and ground-breaking insights directly to your home or office, while the conference app will be a hub for keeping connected throughout the event and beyond.
Let’s be honest, we couldn’t do an agenda this year without mentioning Covid-19, so we’re getting straight down to business on 4 November with the coronavirus as our focus. The global travel and health insurance industry has been hugely impacted by the pandemic, and our speakers in this first webinar will consider how the industry reacted to the restrictions of lockdown, and how it has adapted.
The second session will be led by an infectious disease expert, who will share their insights into how healthcare professionals coped during the pandemic, what they have learned about this virus, and what it means for the future of infectious disease outbreaks.
Day two will consider the development of medical networks in Mexico and the Caribbean, followed by insights from fraud experts into what they are on alert for in different regions of the world.
These will be interactive sessions, with participants encouraged to send in their questions to the moderator throughout the presentations.
Join us for the 2020 ITIJ Awards
The ITIJ Awards are the annual culmination to ITIC Global and a vital part of recognising excellence in the international travel and health insurance sector.
This year has been challenging in ways that none of us could have foreseen, and the fact that companies have swiftly adapted to overcome the vast obstacles they have come across, and continue to provide their products and services for a changed world, is testament to the industry’s versatility and strength in the face of adversity.
ITIJ is prouder than ever to be hosting this awards ceremony that will celebrate and share in the successes of a broad range of companies working within this global marketplace.
Join us online at itij.com/awards from 19:00 GMT on 5th November when we will be celebrating this year’s finalists and revealing the winners.
