SIAA’s (Strategic Insurance Agency Alliance) 48th National Business Meeting kicked off October 9th with the 3rd Annual “A Pink Evening in Boston with SIAA”, a fundraiser for Dana Farber Cancer Institute and The Jimmy Fund. All guests were asked to wear pink to honor Breast Cancer Awareness Month.

Matt Masiello, CEO of SIAA, said, “We are pleased to continue our support which provides funding for treatment of all types of women’s cancers. A Pink Evening raised over $80,000 this week, increasing contributions to more than $200,000 over three events. SIAA will continue to support the fight for a cure.” SIAA further motivated guests with a $15,000 match for any contributions given by the end of the three-day conference.

Regarding the business meeting itself, Masiello continued, “Innovation and technology are changing the industry daily, and we are working with our strategic partner companies and master agencies to see that member agencies evolve with us.” The meeting brought together representatives and executives from more than 20 of the top insurance companies and insurance professionals from each of SIAA’s 48 master agencies nationally. Over three days, insurance professionals attended several speaking engagements, workshops, and presentations specific to the independent insurance agency distribution channel.

SIAA is the largest national alliance of independent insurance agencies in the country, having signed 13% of all independent agencies in the U.S., and is projected to write $8.8 billion of total in-force premium in 2019.
