Liberty Specialty Markets announces its sponsorship of iCAN
This sponsorship is a testament to Liberty Specialty Markets’ (LSM) commitment to diversity, equity and inclusion.
The sponsorship
LSM’s sponsorship will support a wide range of iCAN’s ongoing and newly launched initiatives for 2024. These include our INspire self-serving mentoring platform and iCANConnect, a safe space for D&I leaders across the insurance industry, as well as our iCAN Apply Jobs Board which aims to give more access for our members to opportunities within the insurance industry.
In addition to these three main initiatives, the sponsorship will support the continuation of the Coffee with the CEO series and a range of virtual and in-person events for the 5,000+ members based in the UK and internationally.
Seema Vadera, Group Head of HR at LSM, said:
"Liberty is proud to sponsor iCAN, marking a further significant step in our commitment to advancing diversity, equity and inclusion and career development in the insurance sector. iCAN's strides in supporting diversity align seamlessly with our values at Liberty.
"As we embark on this partnership, we are dedicated to creating an environment where every employee can thrive, ensuring that opportunities are open to all, challenging industry perceptions, and championing diversity in every aspect of our workplace."
