11th AIDA Europe Conference Madrid, 29-30 May 2025
Navigating the Insurance Landscape: Regulation and Innovation in the European Insurance Markets
Information to our Sponsors – Find out more here
Most of you are familiar with AIDA Europe, a non-profit organization dedicated to promoting, directly or through its members, the development of insurance relevant topics and insurance related law.
AIDA Europe – https://aidainsurance.org/regional-groupings/aida-europe
AIDA Europe comprises some 30 members, national AIDA Chapters as well as certain arbitration organizations. As an organization, AIDA offers a unique platform bringing together insurance legal professionals from academia, industry, the regulatory domain and private practice.
Information on the AIDA Europe Conference in Madrid on 29-30 May 2025
The conference “Navigating the Insurance Landscape: Regulation and Innovation in the European Insurance Markets” in Madrid focuses on how the insurance market is reacting to the challenges of the changing world. Is it quick enough to meet the rapid climatic change, technological innovation, societal trends and geopolitical realignment? Increasingly unpredictable and damaging natural catastrophes are forcing new forms of insurance to enable rapid recovery of losses. New technologies applied to insurance are an ally in this field. On the other hand, new risks associated with the use of AI are leading to the emergence of new insurance coverages, not only for cyberattacks. What should be the role of regulators in the light of these insurance developments?
The conference will afford everyone the chance to engage in two days of informed and stimulating discussion, interactive sessions with specialist panels and working party meetings, populated by legal and insurance practitioners, regulators, academics and commentators from across Europe and beyond. The diversity in the composition of each panel (geographical, sectors involved) is a very special feature of AIDA Europe conferences which guarantees a very enriching outcome.
Who is attending the Madrid Conference?
Based on our past conferences, we are hopeful of expecting over 200 legal, claims and underwriting professionals, coming from the insurance industry, the legal profession, regulatory bodies and academia. Because the information obtained at the AIDA Europe conferences is usually widely spread within the delegates’ organizations, the visibility of sponsors is multiplied far beyond the actual number of delegates [see: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pAo042Yo_KE – video of our Conference in Zurich (2022), and https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JrrQj9R3Au4 -in Athens (2024).
Conference programme & announcement – Find out more here
The Conference is being advertised through social media for professionals, special insurance-related media and the national Chapters of AIDA, whose members are in turn disseminating materials which will mention the names of conference sponsors, across a still wider international network of colleagues, clients and contacts. Also, the published conference programme will mention the sponsors prominently (https://aidainsurance.org/events/aida-europe-conference-2025_2025-05-29)

AIDA Europe, through its publication AIDA Europe Law Series on Insurance Law and Regulation published by Springer (abstracted and indexed in Scopus) has so far published thirteen books (https://www.springer.com/series/16331/books?page=2).

Plenary sessions on the final two days of the Congress covered topics ranging from the impact of war and conflict on the insurance market; the market’s responses to climate change and catastrophes; the world of ESG reporting and compliance; and disruptions and innovations affecting traditional methods and lines of business.
