WHITE PLAINS, N.Y., Sept. 30, 2014 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- via PRWEB - Privilege Underwriters Reciprocal Exchange (PURE), the policyholder-owned property and casualty insurer designed for high net worth individuals and families, today announced that it was one of the major sponsors of The Nantucket Project, a conference, held this past weekend, that is widely considered to be a leader among the world's elite conferences and forums.
Each year, The Nantucket Project brings together a select group of accomplished visionaries, thinkers and innovators to focus on a particular subject and generate new ideas. For this year's event, the focus was on Art + Commerce and how the two intersect throughout our lives, at work and at home.
"PURE's model and mission were founded by challenging conventional thinking and finding a better solution to the insurance and risk management issues our members faced. We recognize that same drive to find new ideas, to rethink how we approach issues, in the Nantucket Project and are proud to be a sponsor of this gathering of minds," said Mark Galante, CMO of the PURE Group of Insurance Companies.
In addition to its participation as a sponsor for this past week's event, PURE is also supporting the collaboration between The Nantucket Project and Harbers Studios, which will produce a series of short films inspired by the presentations at the event.
