A conference on insurance for SMEs — for owners and managers of small and medium-sized businesses
10 November 2026 · Kyiv
In person + live stream
Free participation
An association representing the majority of Ukraine's insurance market by premiums and claims paid, and an associate member of Insurance Europe.
The event is held with the support of the international cooperation programme STEP IN 2 EU, co-funded by the Governments of Germany and Norway, the European Union under its EU4Business initiative, and the Governments of Lithuania and Estonia. The programme is implemented by the Deutsche Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit (GIZ) GmbH.
The programme supports Ukrainian government institutions in progressing on the economic chapters of EU accession and aims to improve economic conditions and financing options for Ukrainian companies to benefit from integration into the EU single market.
● A damaged warehouse or equipment
● Cargo that never arrived
● A production stoppage
● An employee injury
● A claim from a counterparty
For a large company this is an inconvenience. For a small or medium-sized business it is often a question of survival. Yet insurance is still seen as an unnecessary expense rather than as a risk-management tool and a precondition for access to loans, investment and partnerships.
We have organised this event to look at the specifics: what exactly can be protected, how it works under wartime conditions, and which of an entrepreneur's problems it solves.
200+ participants in person, plus a live stream for the regions. Around one table — entrepreneurs, government representatives, invited EU experts and leading insurance companies. One day, four substantive blocks.
War risks, disrupted logistics, limited access to financing — this is the reality Ukrainian business operates in. We discuss not insurance theory, but instruments available today.
The B2B zone and consultation points run all day. Put your questions directly to insurance-company representatives, without intermediaries and without any obligations.
