“AXIS was founded at a time of profound uncertainty, when customers and brokers needed specialist capacity, underwriting expertise, and the confidence to move quickly in complex markets. Twenty-five years later, that purpose continues to define who we are,” said Vince Tizzio, President and CEO of AXIS. “As we mark this milestone, when the need for specialty expertise has only intensified, I am grateful to our founders and the colleagues who built AXIS, to the teammates carrying our purpose forward today, and to the customers and partners who place their trust in us.”

The global campaign features a distinctive look and feel incorporating “silver anniversary” iconography that brings to life its specialty products and focus; multimedia advertising, multichannel and digital marketing that celebrates “25 moments” of specialty leadership; a “25/Strong” internal engagement program; and an updated tagline, “25 Years of Specialty Solutions, Elevated”.
