InSight Summit

InSight Summit is Insurance Bureau of Canada’s flagship conference – bringing together the industry’s best and brightest to share insights, knowledge and drive innovation.

The InSight Summit is the premier forum for P&C professionals across all sectors of the industry to explore how emerging technologies, innovations, regulatory changes, and new opportunities are shaping the future of P&C insurance.

For the first time in 2026, IBC is fully uniting its three flagship conference tracks — Financial, Regulatory, and Commercial Insurance — into one powerful event. This new, integrated format gives delegates a unique opportunity to gain insights across disciplines and connect the dots between key areas shaping the industry.

NEW: In the past, attendees would register for their preferred stream – but in 2026, delegates can simply register for the Summit and choose their own content journey by accessing sessions and panels from any of the three tracks, creating a personalized and impactful conference experience.

And, if you miss a session – don’t worry, recordings to each of them will be available to you following the event.

The Summit is set to welcome apx. 500 top executives, decision-makers and thought leaders from numerous sectors, including insurance and reinsurance companies, brokerages, financial services organizations, government and regulatory agencies, risk management and restoration companies, media, and data and technology organizations.

Registration for the 2026 Summit opens on October 1, 2025.
