It’s not too late to register for AIRROC’s signature event of the year! The Annual Legacy Transactions & Networking Forum returns to Jersey City, NJ, October 18–20, 2026. The event brings together nearly 300 delegates from across the legacy insurance and reinsurance market for three days of education, networking, transaction meetings and industry events.
Once again, the Forum will be held at The Westin Jersey City Newport, just across the Hudson River from Manhattan. With spectacular views of the New York City skyline and easy access to the PATH, nearby airports, restaurants and shops, the Westin provides an ideal home base for three busy days of meetings and connections.
Starting Sunday
The Forum kicks off Sunday afternoon with AIRROC’s NextGen Social at nearby Hudson Hall, where early-career professionals can connect before joining the broader AIRROC community at our cookout-themed Kickoff Reception at the Westin. Please note that separate registration is required for the NextGen Social, and space is limited.
Monday
Networking tables are available for meetings throughout Monday, but we hope you’ll take some time out to attend our educational programming — CLE provided! Monday’s Education Day opens with a conversation with Paul Brockman, Group CEO of RiverStone International and AIRROC’s 2023 Person of the Year, followed by a panel of industry experts discussing the legacy market and current deal-making climate. Other presentations throughout the day will tackle timely issues facing the industry, including Middle East risk exposures, post-quantum cryptography, insurance implications in the digital age and nuclear verdicts.
Following Monday’s education sessions, we’ll celebrate the people helping shape AIRROC and the legacy market at our annual Awards Ceremony. We’ll reveal AIRROC’s 2026 Person of the Year, recognize the recipient of the 2026 Trish Getty Scholarship, and present the NextGen Leadership Award.
The celebration continues Monday evening at Battello, just a short walk from the Westin. With exceptional food and sweeping views of the Hudson River and Manhattan skyline, our gala reception and dinner is always one of the highlights of the Forum.
Tuesday
Tuesday offers another full day of transaction meetings, along with our Women in Legacy Coffee & Connections, a relaxed mid-morning opportunity to meet and reconnect with women from across the legacy market.
