MCE, the Midland broker, has signed up to Misys Countrywide.
Michael Edwards, MCE's director, said the decision to joing a network, for the first time in its 30-year history, was the result of being able to join a network without losing its independence.
Edwards said: "Countrywide, unlike other networks, allows us to keep our agency agreements in our own name so we have complete control of our insurer partnerships."
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.
