Through thoughtful sessions and peer-to-peer coaching, our 2025 Chief Communications Officer Meeting – generously hosted by Simone Bemporad and Generali – highlighted the value of shared insight in times of change. What defines an effective global communications team? How can comms leaders balance stakeholder demands while safeguarding their own well-being in a complex environment? These were just some of the themes we explored over the two-day meeting chaired by Lauren Day, Allianz. Sincere thanks to Andrea Sironi, Chairman of Generali, for joining us and closing the meeting with a rich, forward-looking conversation.

We are pleased to announce that the GAIP Summit 2025 will take place in Singapore from September 15 to 16, 2025. Building upon the success of the inaugural GAIP Summit 2024—which brought together leading figures from Asia's insurance industry, global regulators and policymakers, international organisations, and development agencies to explore essential strategies for addressing Asia's protection gaps—GAIP Summit 2025 will deepen these dialogues, enhance collaboration, and strengthen partnerships, with a focused commitment to translating insights into actionable steps to close Asia's protection gaps.
