Agoris analysis · updated September 2026

Key takeaways

• "The leading event in France dedicated to insurance product distribution": Les Journées du Courtage (the French insurance brokerage trade show) brings together, once a year in September, insurance brokers and intermediaries and their product suppliers.
• Organiser: SAS Journées du Courtage (Gentilly, RCS Créteil 441 756 889), a company of the Infopro Digital group, which also publishes L'Argus de l'assurance.
• Next edition: the 26th, on Tuesday 14 and Wednesday 15 September 2027 at the Palais des Congrès de Paris, from 9am to 7pm on the Tuesday and 9am to 6pm on the Wednesday.
• Latest published figures: the 2025 edition brought together over 180 exhibitors and 10,035 brokers and insurance intermediaries (source: ROAM, a French mutual insurers' association). The 2026 edition was held on 15-16 September 2026, with no published figures from the organiser to date.
• Access filtered by profession: entry is free for brokers and intermediaries with an ORIAS number (France's register of insurance intermediaries), subject to mandatory pre-registration and approval by the organiser. Representatives of non-exhibiting companies pay 1,875 € excl. VAT (2,062.50 € incl. VAT).
• Three content strands: the conferences hosted by the editorial team of L'Argus de l'assurance, the exhibitor workshops at L'Agora, and the In'Tech Lab dedicated to insurtechs.

Who exhibits

Typical profile

The offering covers the entire supply chain of the brokerage firm. Among the exhibitors, the organiser lists: life and property & casualty (P&C) insurance companies, assistance and legal protection companies, wholesale brokers, provident and mutual insurance institutions, expertise firms, borrower insurers, IT service providers and other service providers (training, software).

On the visitor side, the target audience is narrower: brokers, financial investment advisers, wealth management advisers, major brokers, insurance intermediary agents, European intermediaries and risk managers.

Notable exhibitors

The official list of exhibitors is published and updated by the organiser on the trade show's exhibitor page. It distinguishes between exhibitors at the main trade show and those at the In'Tech Lab. As of writing, this page still carries the 2026 list: the 2027 list will be published in the same place.

Quality of the audience

The ORIAS filter at the entrance is the trade show's main distinguishing feature: free access is reserved for registered professionals, each badge request is approved by the organiser, and providers who are not exhibiting pay an entry fee. The result is an audience made up almost entirely of practising distributors, able to sign a brokerage agreement. The 2025 edition brought together 10,035 brokers and intermediaries (source: ROAM); for the 26th edition, the organiser is targeting 10,000 brokers and intermediaries and 180 exhibiting suppliers.

Events & community

Conference programme

The programme is organised into three distinct formats. Four conferences are hosted by the editorial team of L'Argus de l'assurance and break down regulatory and competitive market news. The exhibitor conferences allow partners to present their new products and services. Workshops are held at L'Agora, the space dedicated to exhibitors' hands-on sessions, around four topic areas: health, digital, provident insurance and regulation.

Details of the 2027 programme (titles, timings, speakers) had not yet been published on the organiser's website at the time of writing.

In'Tech Lab

The In'Tech Lab is the trade show's area reserved for insurtechs and technology companies serving insurers and insurance product distributors. It operates with a specific stand format, up to 8 m², sized for young companies. It is the trade show's least costly entry point for a software publisher or platform looking to test itself with the broker network.

Community & networks

The trade show serves as the sector's annual meeting point for professional organisations. ROAM (Réunion des Organismes d'Assurance Mutuelle, a French mutual insurers' association), for example, ran the second edition of its Village des PME (SME Village) at the 2025 edition.

The organiser also runs two short-format regional events between Paris editions: Les Rendez-vous du Courtage Marseille (13th edition, 23 March 2027) and Les Rendez-vous du Courtage Lille (2nd edition, 22 June 2027).

How much it costs to exhibit

Preparing your visit

For the exhibitor

• Request the exhibitor pack early: offers and stand location are negotiated on an ongoing basis, with no published pricing schedule or advertised deadline.
• Weigh up a classic stand against the In'Tech Lab: for a software publisher or technology platform, the latter offers themed visibility on a smaller footprint.
• Plan a speaking slot: exhibitor conferences and workshops at L'Agora are the two formats that generate qualified traffic to the stand, to be booked with the organiser in advance.
• Size the invitations: the communication pack includes paper invitations and a media kit to activate with your own broker portfolio.

For the decision-making visitor

• Check your ORIAS number and complete online pre-registration before coming: this is the condition for free entry, approval of your badge by the organiser and collecting it on site.
• Target stands in advance using the online exhibitor list once it is updated for 2027: with around 180 exhibitors across two days, an unplanned visit is quickly diluted.
• Block out the four L'Argus de l'assurance conferences as soon as the 2027 programme is published: this is the densest format for regulation and market developments.
• Set aside half a day for the In'Tech Lab if this year's focus is on firm tooling (underwriting, management, compliance).

Policy & CSR initiatives

The Les Journées du Courtage website does not publish a dedicated "Commitments" or "CSR" page, and the event does not report its own ISO 20121 certification. Two levels of commitment are, however, documented upstream.

On the organising group's side: Infopro Digital has run a formal sustainable development policy since 2015, structured around three pillars (environmental, social, governance), with ISO 14001 certification and a strand explicitly dedicated to sustainable events and trade shows, as well as to reducing the group's direct and indirect carbon footprint.

On the venue's side: the Palais des Congrès de Paris is operated by Viparis, the world's first operator certified ISO 20121 across all of its Paris sites, with a policy covering waste management, energy efficiency and responsible purchasing.

As things stand, no CSR scheme specific to the trade show (offsetting, low-carbon mobility, stand reuse) is publicly documented by the organiser.

How the trade show has evolved

Trajectory analysis

In 2027, Les Journées du Courtage marks its twenty-sixth edition without having changed its format: two days, still a Tuesday and Wednesday in mid-September, still at the Palais des Congrès de Paris, with a stable order of magnitude of around 180 exhibitors and 10,000 professional visitors over several editions. This stability is the result of a deliberate choice: the trade show is not chasing volume but the purity of its audience, guaranteed by the ORIAS filter at the entrance and by the entry fee imposed on non-exhibiting providers.

Change is therefore playing out in content rather than size. The In'Tech Lab has installed a technology strand at the heart of a trade show historically centred on insurance products, and the editorial backing of L'Argus de l'assurance gives the conferences a role as a news touchpoint for the profession. The development of regional events in Marseille and Lille, in a one-day format, extends the brand outside Paris without diluting the September Paris event.
