Axis Insurance Managers Inc., the Vancouver, Canada-based insurance broker, announced the acquisition of Fuse Insurance, a Calgary-based, technology-driven commercial insurance brokerage.
Founded in 2017, Fuse has built a strong reputation for managing complex risks in industries such as ecommerce, healthcare, and cannabis.
