This month, the Windstorm Insurance Network will be hosting its 10th Annual Windstorm Insurance Conference, or WIND 2009. Taking place Jan. 25-28, 2009, at the Rosen Centre Hotel in Orlando, Fla., the conference is an educational forum to address issues, exchange ideas, and explore solutions in the windstorm claim industry.
