About the event
Join us for an exclusive evening of networking and insights, hosted in collaboration with Google Cloud, Optalitix, and Concirrus. Together, we’ll explore the trends shaping the future of underwriting.
Key topics to be discussed:
• Speed of service as a differentiator – what you need to be able to assess and price submissions in a few minutes.
• The age of decisioning – tech with the intelligence to triage, prioritise, track and suggest next steps.
• The rise of verticalisation – how to create specific underwriting solutions with workflow, data enrichment and data insights designed for each class.
• Flexible and scalable pricing capability – convert models into code in minutes, change prices on the fly and run regular simulations.
• The importance of compatibility – providing APIs to ensure ease of integration with CRMs, admin systems and data augmentation sources.
This event was exclusively for Google Cloud Marketplace members, insurers, brokers and MGAs only.
