The Institutes CPCU Society will host In2Risk 2026, its annual meeting and CPCU® Conferment ceremony and celebration, Oct. 19–21 in Las Vegas. The event brings together risk management and insurance professionals for three days of peer-led education, meaningful networking, and conversations focused on the issues shaping the future of the profession.
In2Risk is designed by industry professionals for industry professionals. Each session is peer-led and selected to deliver relevant, practical insight that attendees can take back to their organizations, teams, and careers. The 2026 agenda features timely topics across risk management and insurance, including artificial intelligence and technology, cyber risk, climate and catastrophe risk, legal trends and loss severity, regulation and compliance, claims, underwriting, innovation, ethics, talent development, and enterprise risk strategy.
“In2Risk is where the CPCU Society community comes together to learn, connect, and celebrate what moves this profession forward,” said Spenser Villwock, MBA, IOM, CAE, Executive Director of The Institutes CPCU Society. “The strength of this event is the people in the room. In2Risk is Your Society in action. Attendees learn directly from peers and industry leaders who understand the challenges, opportunities, and pace of change facing risk management and insurance professionals today.”
A highlight of In2Risk 2026 will be the CPCU Conferment ceremony and celebration, honoring the newest class of CPCU designees. The CPCU designation, recognized as one of the most respected credentials in risk management and insurance, reflects a commitment to technical excellence, ethical leadership, and lifelong professional growth.
“For new CPCU designees, In2Risk is both a celebration and a beginning,” said Elaine George, CPCU, President and Chair of the CPCU Society Leadership Council. “Conferment of our newest CPCUs recognizes the work it took to earn the designation, while welcoming them into a professional community. It is also an opportunity for CPCU Society members to connect and share knowledge to elevate the industry. That sense of community makes In2Risk so meaningful! We invite all industry professionals to join us.”
The event will close with a keynote from Colin O’Brady, an 11-time world record-breaking explorer, peak performance expert, entrepreneur, and New York Times bestselling author. Known for completing some of the most demanding expeditions on Earth, including the first solo, unsupported, fully human-powered crossing of Antarctica, O’Brady will bring a powerful message of resilience, mindset, and achievement to the closing keynote and CPCU Conferment celebration.
