Insurance Times secures Best Publication accolade at awards event

Insurance Times scored a hattrick of wins at the Biba Journalist and Media Awards yesterday (28 June 2023) – including securing the award for best publication.

The Best Publication Award is made to the team that has, in the Biba judges’ opinion, best presented insurance matters over the course of the year.

The award was presented to the Insurance Times team by Graeme Trudgill, executive director of Biba.

Editor Katie Scott said she was “beyond proud of the Insurance Times editorial team for winning the prestigious Publication of the Year award”. 

“In the last year, we worked incredibly hard, supporting each other to source and deliver the most useful, relevant and interesting stories for the general insurance market,” Scott added.

“It’s fantastic to have this recognised by a body that represents a key component of our readership.”
