ITX Derby 1

On behalf of the ITX leadership team, I’m thrilled to share our 2026 Derby conference sponsorship opportunities with you.

This event marks the inaugural edition of the ITX Derby—an industry milestone and the beginning of something extraordinary.

This will be the gathering point for the insurance and insurtech community. Not as another conference, but as a defining moment. ITX Derby is where relationships will develop into partnerships, conversations will turn into funding, pilots will move forward, and opportunities will accelerate. The entire ecosystem will be represented: BGAs, life insurance carriers, insurtechs, venture capital firms, and leaders across the industry who are shaping what comes next.

Whether you are a startup or a global organization, there is a place for your brand and your mission. Sponsorships range from exhibitor displays to title opportunities, each designed to help your company connect, be seen, and move forward.

This first edition of ITX Derby will create the standard for future industry gatherings. We look forward to welcoming you and to the meaningful connections that will take shape within our community.

Join us. The future of insurance will meet here.

We hope to see you there.
