This week we hand over the mic to Robin Merttens as he talks to James Gillespie, Head of Pricing, and Grant Dewar, Client Services Director at Aon’s Strategy and Technology Group (STG).
In this episode, they discuss the evolution of Aon STG in the 18 months since it was created, what has been learned and what clients are seeking. It goes on to describe the body of services and resources it is building and the scale of its ambitions.
Key talking points include:
- How the role of insurance brokers is changing
- The development of the Aon STG ecosystem and plans for that
- What the data model of the future looks like and how a conjoined approach through the whole value chain could transform insurance
- The strength of what Aon can offer when the brokerage and STG join forces
- How the size of the group has attracted new business, not deterred prospects
- Nostalgia for 70’s prog rock music, art and design
- Why everyone should do Lego in their spare time
