Building on SFM’s initiative, InsureNet continues to evolve as a key meeting place for professionals across finance, insurance, and technology. The aim remains clear: to expand collaboration, strengthen knowledge exchange, and grow the network within insurance distribution.
Next year’s InsureNet program will shine a light on emerging business models, evolving regulations, and shifting customer needs. As always, the event will bring together insightful speakers and panel discussions featuring decision-makers, regulators, and influential voices from the Swedish and European insurance markets.
SFM looks forward to once again gathering professionals from the finance, insurance, and tech sectors for an afternoon of fresh perspectives and meaningful dialogue. We will meet at Citykonferensen in central Stockholm — the exact date will be announced soon.
