Chad Collins, CEO Software at Business Area Supply Chain, said: “With the increasing complexities faced by the supply chain industry, we identify and celebrate the women whose resilience, skills, and leadership have kept supply chain networks moving forward in demanding times. Technology can help, but it will always rely on the leaders who rise to the challenges of our digital age in exemplary ways.”

Hub International announces strategic partnership with Mas Seguros to expand transportation cross-border capabilities

Chicago, IL, October 1, 2024 - Hub International Limited (HUB), a leading global insurance brokerage and financial services firm, announced today an exclusive referral and broker program partnership throughout the U.S., Canada and Mexico with MAS Seguros, the largest trucking insurance broker in Mexico. The partnership is a response to Mexico’s growing influence in the global economy and a reflection of HUB’s and MAS Seguros’ commitment to expanding its capabilities to better serve clients doing business throughout North America.

Organizations face regulatory compliance issues, crime, product damage, catastrophic weather events and accidents.
