JKJ Named as Finalist for Zywave’s 2026 Cyber Retail Broking Team of the Year

Hosted annually, Zywave’s Cyber Risk Awards have become the leading networking event on the cyber risk social calendar, bringing together top professionals from across the insurance and cybersecurity industries. Now in its 13th year, the awards program honors the standout individuals and organizations driving innovation, expertise, and leadership in the cyber marketplace.

What sets the Cyber Risk Awards apart is that winners are determined through a “People’s Choice” voting process, leveraging Zywave’s extensive network of insurance professionals to recognize the industry’s top performers, without influence from sponsors or advertisers.

This year’s program features an impressive group of finalists, including 84 individuals and 128 organizations, each demonstrating exceptional contributions to the evolving cyber risk landscape.

JKJ’s nomination in the Cyber Retail Broking Team of the Year category reflects the firm’s continued investment in building a forward-thinking cyber practice. The award recognizes retail brokers who have demonstrated innovation, expanded their cyber expertise, and delivered meaningful impact to clients through education, strategy, and market leadership.

Voting is open now through Friday, May 22 at 11:45 PM ET, and members of the business and insurance community are encouraged to participate.
