Big thanks to everyone who helped put on a truly memorable Big I Connecticut 125th Annual Convention this year. NEEE Director of Business Development, Evan Forward, was grateful for the opportunity to connect with CT agents and looks forward to finding new ways to serve the surplus & specialty lines needs of Big I Connecticut agency members in the coming months.

Our offices will be closed Thursday, November 28th through Friday, November 29th in observance of the Thanksgiving holiday. We will reopen Monday, December 2nd. From our family to yours, best wishes and bountiful blessings to you and your family.

We were proud to once again sponsor this year’s annual Commissioner’s Night Dinner, put on by the Vermont IAIP associations. Insurance professionals from all disciplines came together to learn, connect, and hear the latest on the efforts of the Vermont Department of Financial Regulation to address the needs of today’s insurance marketplace from Commissioner Kevin Gaffney. NEEE Director of Business Development Evan Forward (pictured between Vermont Association of Insurance Professionals President Stephanie Oakes and Champlain Valley Association of Insurance Professionals President Robin Faraone) had the honor of presenting two prestigious awards that we sponsor every year. Diane Boutin with the Noyle Johnson Group received the memorial Dayle Smedy Educational Scholarship and Stephanie Oakes from Ogon Consulting was named the IAIP Insurance Professional of the Year. Congratulations Stephanie and Diane!
