About this Event
Join us for a very special PrideZ Celebration hosted by Zurich, in collaboration with InsurePride, as we bring the insurance industry’s Pride community together for an afternoon of inspiration, connection, and celebration.
✨ What’s in Store:
- Fireside Chat with AFLW stars Tayla Harris & Paxy Paxman (Melbourne Demons)
- Networking with colleagues and peers across the insurance sector
- All timed with the AFLW Pride Rounds
👉Themes we’ll explore:
- Pride on the Field: What AFLW Pride Round means to them and how sport can be a catalyst for broader societal change.
- Courage & Authenticity: Their journeys as out-and-proud athletes and the challenges (and triumphs) of being visible role models in the public eye.
- Resilience Under Pressure: Handling scrutiny, setbacks, and mental health challenges while staying true to who you are.
- Lessons for Corporate Australia: What the insurance sector can learn from sport about leadership, allyship, and building truly inclusive teams.
- Future of Inclusion in Sport: Their vision for what’s next — both in AFLW and in workplaces like ours.
This is more than an event — it’s an opportunity to show visible support for the LGBTQ+ community, strengthen industry connections, and celebrate Pride in a meaningful (and fun!) way.
