LMForums - Continuing to bring the London Market and global insurance community together

Despite the pandemic and the Market working from home, we are still creating great content and generating networking opportunities for insurance professionals here in London and around the globe. There’s never been a more important time to stay connected and keep yourself informed. The Market CEO’s participating in our sessions tell us that continuing to learn, grow personally and build relationships in these “virtual” times should be a number one priority. At LMForums, your Market hub, we are trying to help each and every person in EC3 do exactly that.

Every year, LMForums has brought thousands of insurance professionals together in the UK to discuss, debate and collaborate on topics of mutual interest in the community. During this period of extended remote working for many of us, we have converted these valuable sessions into virtual events. Bringing groups of experienced and like minded people together has proven to be extremely beneficial for both individuals and their companies. You don’t need to be a Member of LMForums to join in, but you are welcome to join - it’s free for all insurance professionals, globally.

Join us this week and be part of a unique gathering. We have great guest speakers and lots of time for an open roundtable debate. Places at all LMForums events go quickly, so reserve your space around the table today.
