Tech Guide for insurance launches by end of October

We have been working hard on the launch of the Tech Guide for Insurance and are on track to launch before the end of October.  We are hoping you will find it a fast and simple way to see what technology is available and then contact vendors for more information.

Conferences

I enjoyed chairing the panel discussion at the recent IDC conference (see the blog).

As well as some private engagements I will also be speaking at the LIMRA/ LOMA conference on 6th and 7th November and the Asian Insurance review conference on 17th and 18th November. More information on those to come soon.

Digital underwriting and sales fulfilment report

We have been collaborating with Swiss Re on producing a magazine style report in this area. It is coming along well and we expect to launch at the end of October or early November.

Digital Insurance Library

Our library review service celebrates its ninth month and we now have 81 articles in the library. We have also started a monthly email to subscribers so you can receive the 9 reviews published in your inbox each month along with other relevant updates on digital insurance.

Mobility survey with PGi

The survey on mobility will continue until the end of October. We will share the results with subscribers before the end of the year. Take the survey here.

Subscriber activity

Subscribers to the site now exceed 4,000 and steady growth continues. There are more than 1,500 members of the Linkedin group and the content available is growing as more people join and participate.
