EIP Welcomes G2

EIPEIP is pleased to announce and welcome its newest annual platinum sponsor, G2!

Founded in 2012, G2 in itself is EMERGING and has unique story: 
Over the last thirty years, there’s been a shift in the insurance industry. The smaller regional brokerage firms that specialized in high-touch service have slowly been acquired by large, corporate interests. Not surprisingly, many clients feel that there’s now more emphasis on profits than service. Nobody understood the tragedy of this shift better than Larry Colton, who served as president of Goldman Insurance Services and Willis Insurance during this time. By the end of his tenure, he knew he needed to reconnect to a more client-centric culture.

At the same time, Jason and Matthew Goldman had started to give serious thought to following in the footsteps of their grandfather, Richard Goldman. The brothers had recently graduated from UC Berkeley with degrees in Interdisciplinary Studies. In early 2012, after many discussions, Jason, Matthew, and Larry began talking about how to reimagine the twins’grandfather’s firm for the twenty-first century—combining a sophisticated, and perhaps retro, level of service with radical new ideas about evolving the client experience. This retro/radical approach would come to life in three principles: hire the best, most experienced professionals around; focus on new and disruptive ways to meet the ever-changing needs of clients; and deliver high-touch service that lives up to the Goldman name. In June 2012, G2 opened its doors for business, immediately attracting top-tier talent from across the industry—including a number of former Goldman employees.    

THANKS AGAIN TO ALL OUR 2015 SPONSORS FOR YOUR SUPPORT!

    ABOUT EIP

    San Francisco Chapter

    In 2007, a couple of people decided to arrange a happy hour with just a few of their industry friends. When over 30 people showed up they clearly saw a great opportunity for networking and joined forces with "Emerging Insurance Professionals of Southern California." Now the group has grown to over 500 members and more formal events with further networking opportunities are always the works.
