Insurance Business America's 10th annual Elite Women celebrates the achievements and hard work of the women in the insurance industry. We are proud to grant this prestigious award to women paving the way for the next generation of insurance professionals.

This report welcomes outstanding women who have made a significant impact in their career and profession in the past 12 months and have never been recognized on the Elite Women list. If you are, or you know, a US insurance professional who deserves this accolade, simply fill out the form below.

Nominations are completely free.

The Elite Women report will be selected with the assistance of an independent advisory panel from the American Property Casualty Insurance Association (APCIA), the Association of Professional Insurance Women, Lockton, HUB International, Aon, Gallagher, and the National African American Insurance Association (NAAIA). It will be featured on the website in March to celebrate International Women’s Day 2025.
