The Conference was a great experience for our member agents. Georgia Schelberger, VP – Associate Managing Director with Towne Insurance noted the following on LinkedIn:
Thank you to all who attended the Independent Insurance Agents of Virginia Young Agents Conference in Norfolk, where I had the pleasure of representing Towne Insurance. Laura Hancock, AAI and I shared the importance of wellness and reminded everyone that you can’t pour from an empty cup!
The event was packed with valuable insights covering everything from AI's impact on insurance with Jason Sabo to leveraging LinkedIn from Rob "YB" Youngblood. We dove into the investigative side with a session from the Bureau of Insurance and heard about leadership from NBA legend Tony Brothers.
The energy was contagious, and I’m looking forward to seeing how we all continue to thrive!
