2024 Winners


Salute was formed in 1992 to recognize and honour the Insurance Person of the Year, someone who has made a significant contribution to furthering the image of the general insurance industry in this province.

In 2007 we introduced the Rising Star Award, honouring a person from the next generation, whose professional contributions and dedication to excellence have already made them a leader and a role model in our industry.

The Insurance Person of the Year and Rising Star awards are presented at a gala evening which celebrates the dedication, commitment, and integrity of all the people in our industry.
