The Underwriting Agencies Council has hailed its most successful Sydney expo, with almost 400 brokers attending and 98 exhibitors.

“I have not heard so many satisfied comments from both exhibitors and brokers, and from third parties who came along to see what the fuss is all about and left really impressed,” GM William Legge said.

“Our challenge now is create an equal or better event [next year] to celebrate the Sydney Underwriting Expo’s 20th year.”

Ink Insurance Services director Ilona Kalima won $5000 of travel vouchers in a competition at the March 9 event, Insurance NSW GM Meisam Salimabadi won a Microsoft Surface tablet and Brooklyn’s Jeremy O’Connor a Google Home device.
