iPad Winner of Harness the business-boosting power of the latest digital innovations in insurance

Introduction

FinTech continues to advance at an accelerated pace (and will continue to accelerate). At the same time, businesses of all sizes struggle to keep-up to-date with technology and its impact. To effectively compete, and eventually thrive in this evolving landscape, your digital re-invention must be continuous — and you need to become much more agile, rather than reactive and customer-centric. Success in Digital Transformation is not about strengthening or bettering your company, but exposing new business opportunities and opportunities for growth.

With the help of technology leaders, senior commentators and market experts this fast paced 75-minute thought provoking forum sheds light on some of the ‘newer-than-new’ developments in secure digital transformation that are benefiting insurance companies today (more than you might think!), with step-change improvements in business performance. Plus hear early insights to what’s new in the digital innovation pipeline. There will also be an opportunity to put questions to the presenters at the end of the forum.

This is a Free event. To register, simply complete the registration panel below and confirmation of your registration will be sent to your email address. 

Prize Draw for an Apple iPad, awarded post-event for the best topic/theme suggestion for a future ‘IT Matters’ forum.

Who Should Attend

Understanding these possibilities is vital for senior business, IT, data and security professionals; technology architects and developers; finance officers; business analysts; project managers; risk, regulatory and compliance professionals and underwriters and brokers who work in the Lloyd’s and London market, who wish to extend their knowledge of this important and fast emerging technology landscape. If relevant to colleagues please make them aware of this session. Thank you.
