Thank you to everyone who joined us on the NextGen Coffee and Connect call the other day. It was great to see and hear from the local NextGen chapters across the state. I’m looking forward to seeing this community grow and support one another as we all continue to progress in our careers in insurance.
As a quick recap of the call, I wanted to highlight some of the upcoming NextGen events that are planned this spring:
- National Big “I” Legislative Conference – 1st Time Attendee Scholarships available!! Not only is this a fulfilling way to get involved with advocating for our industry, but it will also include programming with the National Young Agents Committee (YAC), an opportunity to meet and connect with other young agents from across the country
- Please reach out to me if interested in learning more!
May 13-14 (Verona, NY):
- Go Big! (Statewide NY Conference) – Looking forward to seeing everyone at Turning Stone Resort Casino in May! On Monday, we’ll be having a fun Speed Networking event – a great chance to meet fellow NextGen-ers in person from across the state! Tuesday will be filled with additional networking and learning opportunities as well.
- More information on the event and to register: Connect | Go Big (biginy.org)
I also wanted to encourage you all to like/follow all the State and Local Chapter Social Media pages. If you have coworkers or other friends in the industry that are interested in getting involved, please share this information with them as well.

Lastly, I wanted to remind everyone that Carrie and I are always willing to help brainstorm and support initiatives to bring young agents together and get them more involved in Big “I”. If you are not yet already connected with us on LinkedIn, please reach out – we’d love to connect!
