Dame Flora wins Convex support for Paris Olympic bid

Convex Group Limited, the Bermudian-based international specialty re/insurer, has announced a partnership with Bermudian Olympic Games gold medallist triathlete Dame Flora Duffy.

For the next three years, Convex said, it will support Ms Duffy as she looks to represent the island and defend her title in the Paris 2024 Summer Olympics.

Stephen Catlin, chairman and CEO, said: “Flora is a fantastic representative for Bermuda and a source of great pride on the island. It gives us immense pleasure here at Convex to be able to support her journey to Paris and to help further promote Bermuda on the international stage.”

Ms Duffy said: "I’ve committed to defend my Olympic gold in Paris with my family, friends and fans lining the streets.

“With the support of Convex and the rest of my partners, I’m able to pursue excellence and every single marginal gain.

“Having a third Bermuda-based partner alongside Bermuda Tourism and Apex Group makes me feel valued and celebrated as an ambassador, not just for Convex, but for Bermuda as a whole.

“I’m so thankful and hopeful that collectively we’ll be able to raise each other’s profile as both Convex and I strive to be best in class."
