iCAN (The Insurance Cultural Awareness Network) is an independent organisation supporting multicultural inclusion and diversity across the insurance sector. Founded in 2017, iCAN was formed to tackle the lack of leaders and employees in the insurance industry who come from outside the UK, identify as ethnic minorities, or are deemed young talent.
By promoting the benefits of diversity, iCAN has supported and partnered with multiple insurance firms to assist them through their transition to becoming a multicultural workplace.
Ajay Mistry, co-founder of iCAN said:
“We are delighted to partner with The Broker Innovation Awards as we continue to promote talent throughout the insurance industry. Through our iCAN initiatives, we are committed to promoting the visibility of multicultural and ethnic minority Role Models and allies, as well as firms who really are walking the walk. There are some brilliant examples of ESG initiatives and we are proud to be able to promote and highlight these firms. Together with The Broker Innovation Awards, we hope to generate new visibility on key broker role models and those broking firms really making a difference to the challenges in the insurance industry.”
