This move enhances their presence across the Mid-Atlantic, Northeast, and Midwest regions.
Connecting with the Independent Agency Community
A standout feature of Union Bay's presence at the conference was hosting a cocktail hour, which provided a unique opportunity to engage directly with Maryland's independent agency community. These face-to-face interactions promote the establishment of long-lasting professional relationships, which are fundamental to Union Bay's ethos and growth model.
