Details

This is the leading insurance claims event in Australasia, attracting delegates, industry experts and world-class speakers from across Australia, New Zealand the Pacific and Asia. This year marks the 15th Claims Convention, a successful collaboration between AICLA and ANZIIF.

After experiencing 2020 with minimal networking events and the cancellation of the 2020 Claims Convention, we are looking forward to bringing the community together at this years convention. Delegates attending in person will gain the added benefit of face-to-face networking with professionals from across the claims industry. The event will also have a live streaming option for those delegates that may not be able to attend in person – more details will soon follow.

Themed Claims Meeting the Challenges – Pandemic, Disasters, Regulations & Technology Changes, the AICLA/ANZIIF Claims Convention is designed to give claims professionals the insights and knowledge they need to tackle the key issues facing their sector both now and moving into the future.

A dynamic program is planned, and the event is an ideal opportunity to socialise and network with professionals in the claims industry.
