The insurance conference season is in full swing, with the Austbrokers and IBNA Member Services (AIMS) event kicking off last night at Queensland’s Hyatt Coolum resort.

The entire resort has been booked out, with more than 450 brokers and underwriter representatives attending for four days of learning and networking.

GM Jeff Howells told the opening session this morning that the choice of the upmarket resort reflects the “quality and service” ethos of AIMS.

The conference will finish on Thursday, but delegates already know where they’ll be gathering next year: Capetown, South Africa.
