    Agenda

    2pm ● Registration and Networking

    2.30pm ● Welcome – Chris Williams

    2.35pm ● Introduction – Jamie Macgregor

    2.45pm ● How is the IT puzzle changing?

    Transforming the customer and agent/broker experience is increasingly important to insurers who are looking to differentiate themselves and drive sustainable growth. But it’s not just about differentiation, it’s about realizing true returns.

    The inexorable wave of digitization leads insurers to examine where digitization can be used most effectively to make the business more efficient and effective. Anything that can be digitized will be digitized.

    3.25pm ● Coffee break

    Insurers looking to transform their legacy systems have new choices as “The Middle Layer” becomes more viable. What is the right choice for insurers? What should they consider as they move down their road map?

    Insurers are investing heavily to make better decisions in underwriting, claims, and marketing. Data is a source of competitive advantage for identifying profitable niches, managing risk, and improving service.

    The IT organization is playing an increasingly important role in innovation. The role of IT is shifting from “building yourself” to “orchestrating data and processes.” Insurtechs are focusing on making this easy, hence navigating the insurtech ecosystem becomes a new core capability.

    4.45pm ● Panel "Solving the IT puzzle" – Hosted by Craig Beattie and joined by an amazing crew of panelists: Charlie Blackburn (Azur Group, Co-founder & CTO) and Steve Crane (Aviva, Head of UK Strategy & Enterprise Architecture)

    As digitization deepens, some core capabilities need to change. Which are these? How to adapt? How to be resilient for an uncertain future? How to prepare the IT organization to solve this puzzle of uncertainty? Many more questions may come to mind.

    Model insurer award winners will join Celent in this panel to share their views and discuss how they are using technology to deliver true returns.

    5.25pm ● Closing remarks – Juan Mazzini

    5.30pm ● Informal Networking
