    Date: Thursday September 17, 2026

    Time: 12-1:30pm

    Location: The Gage, 24 S Michigan Ave, Chicago

    What to expect: 

    • A fireside chat with Origin & Milliman (Chris Bruce, CEO and Co-founder Origin and JP Augeri, Managing Director Milliman & MBWL): the story behind the Origin–Milliman partnership, and the industry impact of key macro trends from Milliman's 2026 Global Benefits Forecast Survey: cost control pressure, resourcing gaps, AI adoption, M&A complexity, and rising compliance demands.

    • A spotlight from Global Benefits Leader Katie Archer: her experience co-creating a global data foundation with Origin, the value and concrete results it drove, and her view on the possibilities AI has to transform the industry.

    • An open group discussion: a chance to unpack what resonated, name the challenges you're actually facing right now, and explore where AI could move the needle most

    • Informal networking: Connect with like-minded peers grappling with the same challenges you are, learn from each other and keep the conversation going

    Secure your spot

    "It's been so wonderful to find a family of like-minded benefit professionals. The brainstorming the challenging each other is what I'll take away from this. It's helping me already to think broadly and to sort of get out of my own way."

    Katie Archer, Global Benefits Lead
