IRU Members,

It's Time to Save the Date!

The 2010 IRU Spring Conference will take place March 28-30, 2010 at the Sawgrass Marriott Resort in Ponte Vedra Beach Florida, known as the "Home of the Players" and rated one of the top ten golf resorts in the US. The Conference will be rich in content and global in scope, covering in-depth material on current and future trends. Hosting a variety of topics such as:

Monday’s “Working Session” on such emerging issues as:

Earthquake Underwriting – “All shook up?”
Builder Risk/Course of Construction – “Strategies for the New Economy”
H1N1 Flu and Other Pandemics – “Modeling Risk and Managing Exposure”

Tuesday you will gain access to the best minds in the industry during the “Regulators Panel: Where Do We Go From Here?” followed by the “Spring Round Table – The Global Reinsurance Forum"; two sessions consisting of industry leaders in their respective fields sharing their insight and thoughts on the “State of the Market”. Both sessions are geared to give the attendees the opportunity to interact with the panel and ask questions.

To register online you will need your username and password.

So Save the Date, March 28 - 30, 2010.

I look forward to seeing you there and thank you for your membership.
