About Us
Business Model
Current Global Partners
Cannon Events was formed in 2017 with a plan to create the market leading, London-based conference for the global marine insurance community. After launching the inaugural Marine Insurance London in 2018, we quickly added regionally based international conferences in the largest marine insurance hubs.
Working closely with industry associations and advisory boards comprised of senior market representatives from each region, we strive to ensure that our content covers the most pressing issues facing each geographic area. As a global business, marine insurance markets are intrinsically linked and each one of our conference agendas and magazines are painstakingly researched to incorporate regionally specific experts covering the most relevant subject matter.

In 2019 we expanded into the energy insurance market, launching Energy Insurance London. This was followed by Energy Insurance Americas in 2022, focusing on Renewables, Oil & Gas and Power. We have continued to expand our portfolio in 2026 and 2027 with the addition of two new conferences, Marine Insurance Turkiye and Marine Insurance Australia (Melbourne, November 2027). Cannon Events also publishes The Marine Insurer, a quarterly publication with an average readership of some 2000+ global marine professionals.
Cannon Events is fortunate enough to have 24 Global Partners (insurers and brokers) that support all our conferences. Global Partners receive unlimited physical delegate places and branding at all conferences. Senior Global Partner representatives also form the bulk of our advisory committees. These key relationships with insurers and brokers ensure that our content is always relevant and that our conferences are well attended by the right people.
