IBAU Launches the 8th Annual Conference with Sponsor Engagements, Symbolic “Umbrella of Trust” Unveiling, and Community Impact Initiative.
On 15th April 2026, the Insurance Brokers Association of Uganda (IBAU) officially launched the 8th Annual IBAU Conference through a series of strategic sponsor engagements, media interaction, and a community outreach activity that reflected the industry’s shared commitment to trust, collaboration, and service to society.
The launch activation brought together industry leaders, sponsors, and stakeholders in a carefully coordinated convoy designed to recognize key partners and reinforce the central theme of the conference, “Trust Reimagined: Delivering on the Promise” scheduled to take place from 22nd to 24th April 2026 at Hotel Triangle in Mbarara.
The journey began with a courtesy visit to ICEA Lion Group, the Conference’s Gold Sponsors. The visit served as a gesture of appreciation for their continued support and long-standing partnership with IBAU. Discussions highlighted the importance of strong insurer–broker collaboration in improving service delivery, strengthening market confidence, and driving sustainable growth within the insurance sector.
The convoy then proceeded to Mirai General Insurance, the Platinum Sponsor of the 8th IBAU Conference. This stop marked a key highlight of the launch, where the official conference activation was conducted. The moment was symbolically anchored by the unveiling of the “Umbrella of Trust,” representing unity between brokers and insurers, and the shared responsibility of delivering on the promises made to clients and the wider public. The symbol reinforced the industry’s collective commitment to transparency, reliability, and customer-centric service.
The launch further emphasized the role of insurers as strategic partners in shaping the future of Uganda’s insurance landscape, with appreciation extended for their continued investment in industry growth and innovation.
The activation journey concluded at Kiswa Primary School, where IBAU conducted a Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) initiative. Scholastic materials were donated to support learners, reaffirming the Association’s belief in education as a foundation for long-term national development. The activity also reflected the insurance industry’s broader responsibility beyond business contributing meaningfully to the communities it serves.
The day concluded with a press engagement, where IBAU leadership highlighted the significance of the conference theme and the need for deeper collaboration, improved service delivery, and renewed focus on rebuilding trust within the insurance ecosystem.
The launch set a powerful tone for the 8th Annual IBAU Conference, bringing together industry stakeholders under a unified vision of strengthening trust, improving efficiency, and expanding insurance penetration across Uganda.
