Zurich Insurance Group
Switzerland
Excellencies, Ladies and Gentlemen, Dear friends
It is once again a great honor and privilege for Zurich to be part of this unique gathering and awesome demonstration of the pride and many merits of your industry…an industry that is clearly instrumental in driving peace, progress and prosperity!
Zurich Insurance Group as your genuine partner continues to drive with you, as any partner should, to realise your economic, social and environmental objectives.
The Secretary General of the IRU recognised in the IRU’s annual report 2008, entitled “This is the IRU”, that, and I quote “Change is life!”
We at Zurich know all too well that “change happens”! But, like your industry, we are prepared for change, and can tackle any challenges before us, especially when we have partners like the IRU and its invaluable worldwide network of Member Associations!
Let me draw your attention to the screens to better explain through images how Zurich is there for you.
Change is life, and Change happens! You can detect how close our partnership is when we have not only the same philosophical view, but moreover, the same business approach to adapting quickly and effectively to change.
Through our years of partnership with the IRU, we can see that the IRU, its members and the transport operators you represent are not only adapting to change, but growing from strength to strength due to your capacity to change!
Change is life and Change happens! But partnership, true partnership, does not change, but grows stronger!! This, as you will no doubt know, can only be achieved by "Working together for a better future".
Thank you and I very much look forward to seeing you all at the magnificent social events!
