Labour MP Frank Field is to speak at the CII's Breakthrough Lecture later this year.

CII director general Dr Sandy Scott said: "Frank Field was asked by Tony Blair to 'think the unthinkable' during his time as minister for welfare reform.

"He is therefore eminently qualified to deliver our breakthrough lecture. I am sure he will be thought-provoking and challenge conventional thinking."

The Breakthrough Lecture is held to galvanise alternative thinking and practices. This year's lecture will be held on November 15.

The lecture will be held at the CII's Insurance Hall at 12 noon on Friday 15 November.

The 2025 Insurance Times Awards took place on the evening of Wednesday 3rd December in the iconic Great Room of London’s Grosvenor House.

Hosted by comedian and actor Tom Allen, 34 Gold, 23 Silver and 22 Bronze awards were handed out across an amazing 34 categories recognising brilliance and innovation right across the breadth of UK general insurance.
Many congratulations to all the worthy winners and as always, huge thanks to our sponsors for their support and our judges for their expertise.
