Disruptive technology is providing opportunities for companies and industries around the world -- making processes more efficient, more personalised and connecting people across the world ever more closely.

The UK insurance market is no different. You may have been hearing all the InsurTech buzzwords; AI, blockchain, chatbots. But what do they all mean? And what will they mean for businesses, brokers and customers?

Our Allianz experts:

  • Introduce potentially disruptive technologies, including the Internet of Things, BlockChain, and Artificial Intelligence, and what these might look like in insurance
  • Review the customer and market effects -- what are customer expectations and benefits are driven by this technological wave?
  • Discuss the risks associated with letting technology, rather than function or capability, drive product delivery, as well as possible ethical challenges
  • Look at the organisational implications of technology -- both internal and external
