Norwich Union (NU) has become the first company to be granted titled sponsorship of the British Insurance Brokers' Association (Biba) conference.

The conference, to be held from April 26 to 28 in Belfast, is called “Harness the Power – People and Technology Pulling Together”, and NU chief executive Patrick Snowball said this topic was particularly significant to his company.

“The major investment we're making in IT to improve our service to brokers means that the theme of this year's event is highly appropriate,” Snowball said.

“Brokers who build upon their traditional people-based strength through effective use of IT will have a powerful combination to take their business forward.”


The 2025 Insurance Times Awards took place on the evening of Wednesday 3rd December in the iconic Great Room of London’s Grosvenor House.

Hosted by comedian and actor Tom Allen, 34 Gold, 23 Silver and 22 Bronze awards were handed out across an amazing 34 categories recognising brilliance and innovation right across the breadth of UK general insurance.
Many congratulations to all the worthy winners and as always, huge thanks to our sponsors for their support and our judges for their expertise.
