Velonetic will be the Headline Sponsor of the 2026 Market People Awards

We’re delighted to announce that Velonetic will be the Headline Sponsor of the 2026 Market People Awards.

The awards celebrate the individuals, teams, and organisations across the London insurance market who are making a real impact, recognising the people behind the progress, innovation, and day to day excellence that ensures that London Market remains the global marketplace of choice for clients and partners around the world.

Bob James, CEO at Velonetic, commented:

“Velonetic has 1,500 people that wake up every day to serve the London Insurance Market. While we are a tech and data enabled business, we are mindful that it is people who are the secret sauce of what makes the London Market so special. 60,000 people, an ecosystem that is like no other in the world, where customers can transfer risk and find risk solutions in an interconnected web of brokers, insurers, and reinsurers who have provided innovative solutions to risk issues for over 300 years. Remembering that it is the people of the London Insurance Market that makes it so special and recognising the best of best through these awards is why Velonetic supports this event.”

Kerry Rainer, Chief Strategy and Growth Officer at Velonetic, added:

“The LMF Market People Awards stand out as one of the most impactful celebrations of talent in our industry. What makes them unique is their recognition of people across the entire marketplace, in every discipline that keeps our market moving forward. We’re proud to champion an event that elevates those driving meaningful progress.”
