Heirs Insurance Group Calls For Inclusive Travel Ecosystem For Africans

Heirs Insurance Group (HIG) has embarked on a call for an inclusive travel ecosystem for Africans. To this end, it is launching the Heirs Insurance Travel Festival, scheduled to take place on November 29, 2025, in Lagos.

The festival will convene thousands of attendees, including travel ecosystem stakeholders, embassy representatives, tourism content creators, and travel lovers, across the tourism value chain for a first-of-its-kind immersive celebration of global cross-border tourism and culture.

With the theme ‘Promoting Cultural Diversity and an Inclusive Travel Ecosystem,’ the event will feature high-level diplomatic dialogues and fireside chats with renowned African travel creators. It aims to foster strong relationships and promote global tourism to build a more connected world.

The insurer said guests can look forward to an unforgettable experience, featuring immersive games, live performances, thought-provoking panel sessions, cultural showcases, vibrant music, and a curated marketplace with diverse vendors across food, lifestyle, tourism, and entertainment, all designed to bring the world closer to home.

Speaking at the Heirs Insurance Travel Festival, chief marketing officer of Heirs Insurance Group, Ifesinachi Okpagu, emphasised the uniqueness of the event and the role of insurance in facilitating such deep and meaningful convenings.

She said: “Travel is about discovery, exposure, and connection. The world is more connected than ever, but with border restrictions, exploring possibilities and opportunities is becoming increasingly complex.

“Heirs Insurance Group is creating a platform to address these limitations, as insurance plays a key role in unlocking these opportunities safely. Through the Heirs Insurance Travel Festival, we are championing a physically borderless world and provoking meaningful conversations that promote responsible, inclusive travel for all.”

Registration is officially open for the Heirs Insurance Travel Festival, as interested participants can secure their free passes on the company’s website.
