7 answeredURMIA's 58th Annual Conference is scheduled for Sep 18 - Sep 22, 2027, in St. Louis, MO.
URMIA Annual Conference 2026 took place October 10–14, 2026.
More than 1,000 peers were cited for the conference.
It was held at Sheraton Philadelphia Downtown in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.
Higher education risk management and insurance professionals were the intended audience.
It is most useful for risk managers and insurance staff at colleges and universities, since the audience is higher education risk professionals, the program was scheduled with 10 tracks and over 60 sessions, and the planning committee was drawn from campuses such as Yale, MIT, Ohio State and UCLA. With more than 1,000 peers cited over five days, it was billed as giving newcomers a wide peer network, but risk professionals outside higher education would find most of the content and contacts less relevant.
Attendees at higher education risk and insurance conferences usually wear business casual, with a blazer or slightly dressier outfit for any evening events.
