RISE, which stands for “Rising Insurance Star Executives,” is a membership group focused on leadership development for young professionals in the insurance

Combined, Gen Z (born between 1997 and 2005) and Millennials (born between 1981 and 1996) account for 43% of the US population. As these two groups continue to age into the workforce and begin to inherit generational wealth, their buying power is substantially increasing. This poses a window of opportunity to attract the loyalty of these consumers and count them as customers for years to come.

Last month, Bindable’s in-house digital insurance agency, MassDrive, was awarded Personal Insurance Agent of the Year for the New England region by Travelers Insurance. The award is a recognition of our team’s excellent customer service, dedication to our community, and commitment to Travelers. Bindable President, Jean-Marie Lovett, accepted the award on behalf of our agency, alongside ten other distinguished award recipients from agencies across the United States and Canada.
