ABOUT THE CONTENT
Connecting your people, locations, clouds and data is critical for insurers to thrive in the future. As never before, insurers are coming under pressure to have a thorough understanding of their customers, the types of products they need, and to find ways to remain in contact with them beyond annual policy renewal cycles, or during a claims event. On top of that, regulatory reform, data protection concerns, shifting demographics, intensifying competition, digitization, and growing customer expectations are major challenges insurers are facing.
[push h=10]
Over a two-hour lunch, we will discuss how leading insurers deal with those challenges and strategize for:

• Predictive analytics and Big data – using increasing data availability to improve customer experience, as well as changing underwriting pricing and efficiency
• Digital and omnichannel – using technology to interact with clients, improve their experience, reduce costs and increase operational capability
• Core and legacy system transformation – integrating services to enhance client access and update policy administration functions
• Insuretech and blockchain – enhancing services and security through the use of digital techniques to solve current value-chain issues
• Internet of Things (IoT) – deploying this rapidly expanding toolset to understand clients better, and provide flexible yet focused products
