The Independent Insurance Agents & Brokers of New Jersey has become Big I New Jersey and the Independent Insurance Agents & Brokers of New York is now also known as Big I New York.
The two organizations collaborated on the development of the new brand. Both are two of the country's oldest statewide insurance trade groups.
Big I New Jersey
Big I New Jersey President & CEO Sheri Acconzo said in a statement: "I am proud of the direction that our organization has chosen and am excited about the renewed focus on member experience that the re-branding initiative will bring. As we head into our banner 125th year serving New Jersey independent insurance agents, I cannot think of a more perfect time to reaffirm our position in the market. As the Big I New Jersey, we remain connected to our roots while demonstrating who we will be in the future. To be embarking on this journey with our sister organization in New York further demonstrates the stature of the Big I in our region."
Big I New York
Big I New York President & CEO Lisa Lounsbury said in a statement: "Big I New York lays the foundation for the future that we are building for our members, their employees and the independent agency industry. This isn't simply a new logo and name, this starts the next era of delivering what agents need us to be. We will channel the collective knowledge, resources and connections available on a local, state, cross – state and national level to propel our members to the top. Our voice will be stronger and bigger to advance and protect the interests of independent agencies."
