Details

Co-hosted by Global Reinsurance and the Dubai International Financial Centre Authority (DIFC), the 6th annual Dubai World Insurance Congress (DWIC) re-imagines the traditional conference to deliver unrivalled networking, business and thought leadership opportunities, all under one roof.

Global Reinsurance first came to the region in 2007, launching Multaqa Qatar and delivering the event successfully for a decade. In 2017, the Dubai World Insurance Congress [DWIC] launched.

Building on success for DWIC2023
For 2023, the 6th annual DWIC will again be hosted at the Ritz Carlton DIFC – on the doorstep to one of the world’s most advanced financial centres, and the leading financial hub for the Middle East, Africa and South Asia (MEASA).

After two years apart, DWIC played host to 802 registered delegates at the venue as well as many others who were based within the DIFC and used the opportunity to meet-up with our delegation at their offices or one of the many DWIC fringe events.
