A newbies view on disruption within an ancient industry...
I was lucky enough to be asked to give the opening keynote for Insurance Technology 2014. Given that I've only been working within the insurance sector for less than a year, I wanted to draw on my experiences from the broader high-tech sector in my talk. To someone who has worked in both worlds, the stark contrast is very apparent.
I have always been fascinated by disruptive innovation. From where I am standing, it seems that the insurance industry is on the cusp of change. I want a front row seat when that starts to happen!
This talk highlights patterns in wider industry and is meant as a call to arms for insurance leaders to challenge the status quo and begin driving change from within.
Presented at
Insurance Technology 2014 is the premier gathering for senior technology strategists. Attracting over 100 senior insurer and broker decision makers, the one day event provides a critical resource to the UK insurance sector. I was lucky enough to be asked to give the opening keynote.
