Gauteng Women in Insurance (GWII) is an organisation which was founded in 2013, by eight business-leading ladies in the short-term insurance industry, to enhance the position of women in the short-term insurance industry in Gauteng, South Africa.
It is a forum to facilitate networking opportunities, develop members’ personal and professional goals and to promote and debate insurance and other relevant issues.
GWII boasts a membership base that includes insurance specialists, underwriters, administrators, brokers, adjusters, insurers, reinsurers, UMA specialists, and industry service providers.
