Event Insurance

tfconnect has worked with Inevexco (specialist insurance broker to the event and exhibition industry) for many years and is an Introducer Appointed Representative (IAR) of Arthur J. Gallagher Insurance Brokers Limited. Inevexco is a wholly owned company of the Gallagher Group.

With significant investment and M&A activity taking place in the industry; many organisers are now turning their attention to added value ancillary products and services. Inevexco offers two specific insurance products to the Event Industry. One of these provides the Event Organiser with cancellation / abandonment protection and liability cover. There are extensions available to cover Terrorism, National Mourning and Riot / Civil Commotion risks. The other policy allows organisers to offer the opportunity for exhibitors to satisfy their liability Terms and Conditions within the Stand Booking contract as well as providing some additional valuable covers. The list of benefits of this policy include the following: -

• The policy is designed to meet the Organisers (and the venue’s) terms and conditions with additional benefits to Exhibitors. Cover is subject to policy terms, conditions, limits and exclusions.
• These benefits include Exhibitor Expenses should they have to cancel their participation at the show for a reason outside their control and Exhibition Property to cover any items they are bringing to the Exhibition (including in transit to / from the venue).
• In the event of an exhibitor claim, the Organiser retains the stand fee and the insurance pays the exhibitor.... it aims to make the re-booking exercise much easier!
• 'Cash flow positive' – the fee is paid to the Organiser before the premium is due to Insurer
• Many Overseas Exhibitors struggle to source the right cover, so this is an easy way for them to comply with the Organiser’s terms and conditions.
• Current participation rates across all of the shows Inevexco ran the facility on in 2025 were 67% for UK based Organisers. Organisers of shows in Asia who Inevexco work with have substantially higher participation rates.
• The bespoke portal created by Inevexco to email Exhibitors is very easy to use and full training is given
• The cost of the extra administration to facilitate the facility would be paid for by the fees charged as part of the Insurance Participation Fee.
