Insurtech: Application of image, video and audio technology innovations

In this webinar, we continue to explore opportunities created by new Insurtech innovations as well as look at how companies are responding.

Insurers have the opportunity to utilise new sources of data and associated technologies and utilise these technologies and other Insurtech innovations to drive better pricing decisions, managing claim costs and reducing operating expenses.

We discuss a brief history of Insurtech and how it is likely to develop in the future. We also explore the application of image, video and audio in the financial services industry and in insurance.

Speakers included Ed Plowman, Experienced international GI actuary, Hugo Clugston, Head of Portfolio Management and Business Planning at Talbot Underwriting Ltd and Cherry Chan., Partner at Barnett Waddingham LLP. The webinar was facilitated by Valerie du Preez, Founder and Managing Director at Dupro & Actuartech.
