What Our Partners Say

We’re proud to work with organisations and employee networks that are serious about inclusion. Through sponsorship, strategic collaboration, and ERG support, we’ve built long-standing relationships with partners committed to driving meaningful progress in their workplaces and across the industry.

Here’s what some of our partners have to say about working with us — and why they believe in the ERG Blueprint mission.

Wayne Page Head of Inclusion and Diversity, Brit Insurance

"iCAN has been a fantastic partner - connecting us with other D&I professionals, providing high-quality data on our recruitment impact, and supporting our ERGs through inspiring cross-company events. Their passion and commitment to real change in the industry truly stand out."

One of the most valuable aspects has been the ability to connect with other D&I professionals across the industry. We’re not always plugged into each other’s work, so the space iCAN creates for meaningful networking and knowledge exchange is incredibly valuable. Their cross-company events have helped us build stronger relationships and gain fresh perspectives on inclusive practices.

I also want to highlight the quality of the data and insights shared during our recruitment catch-ups.

Our ERGs have found real value in joining events like (iCAN’s) Lunar New Year and Eid, where they can engage with others across the market. It’s inspiring to see how other firms are showing up for these moments, and our teams always leave feeling energised and full of ideas to take back to their own communities.

The iCAN team are truly passionate about creating positive change in the insurance industry. They’re not just ticking boxes – they’re active, responsive, and genuinely committed to supporting both corporate partners and employee-led groups. Their guidance has been invaluable to me and to our ERGs. If you’re looking for a partner who brings both heart and strategic value to the table, I’d highly recommend working with them.

“iCAN has helped us navigate sensitive moments with empathy and cultural awareness, while also expanding our network and amplifying the reach of our inclusion efforts across the industry.”

iCAN has been an invaluable and collaborative partner, providing thoughtful guidance and best practice support during some of the most sensitive and challenging moments. Their input has helped our organisation respond with empathy, cultural awareness, and respect for our people.

Beyond that, iCAN actively creates opportunities to connect with like-minded organisations. These touchpoints have enabled us to expand our network, share knowledge, and form partnerships that strengthen our ERG activity and year-round inclusion efforts.

Partnering with iCAN allows us to amplify our impact and extend the reach of our inclusion work, helping to ensure our efforts resonate more deeply across our organisation and the wider industry.

Bernadette Tredger & Wes Clarke Head of Portfolio Management & Head of HR, Apollo

“iCAN keeps the inclusion conversation alive with consistent, high-impact support. Their insight, cultural calendar, and hiring platform offer excellent value while helping us drive culture change internally and across the market.”

Bernadette Tredger:
The most important aspect for us is that the sponsorship keeps the conversation around cultural inclusion active and evolving. Inclusion is not a one-off initiative – it’s something that needs consistent focus and commitment. Our regular calls with iCAN create that rhythm, and the team, particularly Echaunti, is always receptive, responsive, and insightful. Their experience and guidance help shape our thinking and embed inclusion more deeply into our practices.

Wes Clarke:

Through iCAN, we’ve gained valuable insight into how other organisations approach DE&I across the market. This has been beneficial in strengthening our own practices and reinforces our position as an inclusive workplace within our cultural framework. It also enables idea-sharing and benchmarking, helping us stay aligned with best practice in the market.

Dr Julie Humphreys Head of Diversity & Inclusion, Markel International

“iCAN has helped us expand our outreach, focus our DEI efforts, and empower our Inclusion Network with expert support. Their tailored approach and professionalism make them an invaluable partner.”

iCAN has played a key role in helping us expand our outreach and focus our diversity and inclusion efforts more strategically. One of the things we value most is their personalised approach – their support is tailored to our specific business goals and values, making the partnership truly relevant and impactful.

iCAN has been a vital pillar of support for our Inclusion Network. Their expert advice and thought leadership have enabled us to plan and deliver events, workshops, and networking sessions that truly resonate with our people. This support has contributed to building a more inclusive and engaged workplace culture, empowering colleagues to connect, share experiences, and develop professionally.

We would highly recommend partnering with iCAN. Their dedication, professionalism, and the tangible impact of their support make them an exceptional resource for any organisation looking to strengthen its DEI strategy and culture.
