About the HMEIC Planning Committee
The Planning Committee of the Houston Marine & Energy Insurance Conference is made up of a broad range of volunteers from the marine and energy insurance and law professions – attorneys, insurance brokers, underwriters, surveyors, loss adjusters, and US insurance company and P&I representatives. From setting the program and booking speakers, to Conference logistics, to marketing and advertising, to fundraising, to student and community outreach, the committee of volunteers is the group that works to ensure that the Conference maintains its position as the pre-eminent meeting place for the global marine and energy insurance and legal communities. The HMEIC could not continue without their dedication and commitment.
