InsTech’s Agentic AI half day event in partnership with AI Risk
Agentic AI is one of the most significant technological inflection points facing insurance today. It promises not just automation but autonomous decision-making. While insurers have experimented with automation and machine learning for years, no carrier has yet deployed Agentic AI at scale. This absence of proven adoption creates a unique moment: curiosity is high but so is uncertainty.
Our Half Day event, created in partnership with experts AI Risk, convened over 300 decision-makers across insurance and technology to assess where we are now, what’s real and what comes next. We took a macro view of Agentic AI across the sector, mapping the landscape and exploring the AI architecture needed to implement it within organisations.
For the C-suite, this was a crossroad. CIOs are being asked by their boards whether Agentic AI is truly transformational or just another over-hyped wave. If the technology lives up to its promise, the competitive advantage for early movers could be profound. Our event provided a forum for candid CIO perspectives and an opportunity to hear directly from insurers about where they are placing their bets.
Additionally, for the insurance sector, Agentic AI is not merely a technology risk, it is also a rising market opportunity. Just as cyber became one of the fastest-growing lines once it was insurable, so too could Agentic AI risk develop into a major new premium pool. Understanding, quantifying and underwriting these risks will be essential to enabling the wider adoption of autonomous systems.
This was a rare chance to step back, take stock and shape the industry response to a technology that could redefine underwriting, distribution and risk itself. The conversations and decisions made at this event will determine who thrives and who is left behind in the next wave of insurance innovation.
