IIANC's InsurEXPO is the state's largest insurance industry event and features one of the southeast's largest industry trade shows with 125+ insurance companies and vendors showcasing their latest products and services. Exhibiting at InsurEXPO24 will help connect your company with 400+ IIANC member agents from across the state - more than any other industry event in North Carolina. Even if your company isn't actively searching for agencies to appoint, exhibiting is a great way to visit with your current clients, strengthen those relationships, and show your support for them and the independent agency system.
In addition to exhibit booths in our Networking Hall, IIANC also offers Networking Passes for company representatives as another way to connect with our agent attendees. If your company is not exhibiting, you must purchase a Networking Pass in order to attend the event (any subsequent attendees from your company can register as "additional company representatives" at a reduced rate).

IIANC will make every effort to assign companies to one of their preferred choices, but we reserve the right to make assignments or reassignments as necessary. Companies participating in the 2024 IIANC PARTNERS Program receive priority placement and the opportunity to select space before general registration opens to the public.
