About DWIC
Co-hosted by Global Reinsurance and the Dubai International Financial Centre Authority (DIFC), the 5th 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.
What’s new for 2022?
For 2022, the 5th annual DWIC was 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.
The place to do business
Since it’s launch in 2017, DWIC has focused on providing senior insurance executives with a platform to meet and do business. Working with brokers, insurers and reinsurers, DWIC 2020 brought together regional cedants reinforcing its position as the regional focal point for (re)insurance transactions.
Networking
As well as a great place to meet existing clients, DWIC offers attendees the opportunity to make new contacts. In 2022, DWIC saw more than 5,000 meetings pre-scheduled via the online Meeting Hub.
Learn
DWIC is a great place to share new ideas and international keynote speakers took to the main stage for the opening plenary session. In 2022, we introduced a series of topic-led c-suite roundtable discussions and delegates had the opportunity to listen in to a session/s of their choice.
