EPIC Invests in Enterprise Operations; Adds Chief Operating Officer

Positioning firm’s rapid growth and enabling future enhancements.

EPIC Insurance Brokers & Consultants (“EPIC”) is investing in the next stages of growth with operational enhancements for the firm’s professionals and their clients, including elevating Adam Meyerowitz as Chief Operating Officer. EPIC’s executive leadership team continues to evolve as the firm expands while providing exceptional service and expertise to clients.

Over the past five years, EPIC has grown from a $300 million company to over $1 billion, prompting the addition of a Chief Operating Officer to the executive team, reporting to EPIC’s President Tom O’Neil. In his new role, Meyerowitz will work closely with O’Neil on retail operations, facilitating collaboration, and technology enablement.

“The evolution of our industry has meant that firms need to adapt and be nimble to best serve our clients,” said Meyerowitz. “I’m honored to step into the COO role to equip our professionals with the best platform to support them as leaders in their specializations.”

EPIC has seen significant growth and expansion due to a focus on investing in specialized services and integrating technology. The appointment of an enterprise COO underscores EPIC’s commitment to facilitating collaboration and technology enablement solutions to drive better outcomes for its professionals and their clients.

“Adam has led the Southeast and Midwest regions during some of the most turbulent and changing times the insurance industry has experienced,” said EPIC President, Tom O’Neil. “I’m excited for the continued growth of our leadership team as EPIC has made great strides to adapt to the evolving risk environment that businesses and individuals must contend with. Adam’s vast expertise will continue to drive the innovation of creative risk solutions that EPIC is known for.”

Steve Denton, CEO of Galway Retail Services added, “I had the privilege of working with Adam as we were both part of building a specialized boutique brokerage platform at Beecher Carlson. Adam went on to build Prime Risk Partners as co-founder and EPIC acquired Prime in 2019. At EPIC, Adam has earned the trust of his partners and teammates, and he is the right choice to help lead our operations as we continue our growth trajectory.”

Meyerowitz joined EPIC in 2019, following the acquisition of the insurance brokerage he co-founded, Prime Risk Partners. Since then, he has led the Midwest and Southeast regions as President. Prior to co-founding Prime Risk Partners in 2014, Meyerowitz was a part of the executive leadership team and general counsel for Beecher Carlson. He received his JD from Emory University School of Law.
