Are SOLD OUT for 2025
(Members will be alerted in December of 2026 opportunities. Keep an eye out!)
Due to increased interest, we've implemented sponsorship rules below. Please review before booking yours.
Are you looking for an opportunity to promote your business and to positively impact brokers?
Canadian Group Insurance Brokers (CGIB) has a sponsorship opportunity that will allow you to do just that.
We have been running educational events for over 15 years. Our full day seminars routinely see over 150 attendees in Toronto (we have reached a high of 300!) and 50 to 75 in Vancouver and Calgary.
Our workshops are very interactive and are geared to a smaller audience of 40 to 60 attendees.
Our goal is to be the “go-to” event for benefit advisors from coast to coast. Our past events have been extremely well received and most sponsors return to support us year after year. This is your opportunity to get your business in front of those who matter!
Our target audience for our events are individuals who specialize in employee benefits. Our meetings encourage open discussions and audience participation. Attendees want to be present and are truly interested in the information being shared.
Event sponsorship gives you a very affordable opportunity to promote your business with little additional work – you simply need to be there.
Just a note to congratulate you on an excellent session yesterday. CGIB has come a very long way since the GBGB days! The session was both professional and impactful. It elevated the stature of all the members who attended. We're very proud to be part of it through our sponsorship, CGIB is the real deal.
