QBE will sponsor two NSW Young Insurance Professionals (YIPs) events as part of the insurer’s commitment to nurturing a new generation of corporate leaders.

One is an industry trivia night, dubbed “Battle of the Brains”, on August 31 at Sydney’s Mr Tipply’s bar.

“Attracting and retaining young people in the insurance sector is critical to ensuring we have a sustainable, innovative and vibrant industry now and into the future,” QBE Australia EGM Marketing Bettina Pidcock said.

“YIPs does excellent work engaging young insurance professionals, which helps promote longevity in the industry.

“We’re pleased to get involved and offer our support.”

The other function is a year-end networking event, with more details to be announced in coming months.
