Allianz participates in annual pride parades in cities like Munich, London, Zurich and Minneapolis. On the day of the parade in Munich, we proudly light the Allianz Arena, one of the most prominent buildings in the city, in rainbow colors.

Marie-Helene Tyack, Lead of the Global Allianz Pride Board:
“At Allianz, the Allianz Pride employee network aims to provide a platform for LGBTQ+ colleagues and their allies within Allianz, raise awareness, promote mutual respect and establish a network of experts for all LGBTQ+ topics.
For me personally, as an out gay woman and being part of the LGBTQ+ community, having a network like this is important so we are able to bring our whole selves to work and not pretend to be someone we are not. At Allianz we are lucky to have many Pride networks that work together to provide a safe space for LGBTQ+ people and our allies – these networks are also a platform for raising awareness and increasing LGBTQ+ inclusion and visibility, both internally and externally, making Allianz an employer of choice for applicants on the whole spectrum of diversity.”
