VCIA welcomes fresh, innovative content, extensively outlined, with engaging creative session formats that emphasize active learning, interaction, and inclusive participation. We seek diverse, talented, emerging and seasoned voices to share at America’s largest captive insurance event.

Make your proposed ideas stand out

We encourage innovative, active learning formats to engage conference attendees. Harness the latest technology!

As we chart VCIA’s and the Captive Industry’s path for the next 40 years, we want the 2026 program to include:

· Topics for existing captives, use of reinsurance, "next steps" for established captives, etc.

· Topics for young professionals and captive basics

· Captives 301 advanced level sessions on particular captive coverages like medical stop loss, cyber or property

· Topics directed at different industry segments and captive types beyond pure captive

· New technologies within the insurance industry that will drive the future of risk management
