Spencer goes to London 🇬🇧✈️

This week, we took our mission global—and brought students with us.

From sitting in rooms with industry leaders at Insurtech Insights London to walking through Lloyd’s of London, this is what access actually looks like.

✨ Old Dominion University students joined us through Spencer’s General Grant Program
✨ Connected with professionals across the London market
✨ Attended Spring Into Insurance with the London Market Group
✨ Toured one of the most iconic institutions in global risk

This isn’t just a trip—it’s exposure, connections, and real opportunity.

If you’re a student curious about careers in risk management + insurance… this is your sign 👀

Follow us to see how you can get in the room.
