After 15 months in captivity, carrier and broker offices are trending towards reopening at full capacity. Although air travel is not in full swing yet, the hallmarks of in-person activities are all starting again. Agents are brokers are meeting with clients. Internal meetings are happening in conference rooms that hold more than a few people. And InsurTech conferences are now happening in person.

June 28th marked the first major in-person conference, the Global Insurance Symposium. More than 200 people gathered including insurance commissioners, carrier leaders, and InsurTech founders in Des Moines. But questions remain: will events still have to run hybrid? How many people is too many for events? When will Europe catch up to U.S. vaccination rates?

Seeking to find the right balance, InsurTech NY announced its 2021 accelerator program to run as a hybrid program (3 days in person in NYC, the remaining virtual) in the fourth quarter. Growth-stage startups will have the opportunity to meet 20+ carriers and brokers at the in-person selection day followed by virtual programming to support their business development, talent recruiting, and fundraising activities.

InsurTechs can read about the program and apply at: InsurTech NY Accelerator.

Spotlight: Core Systems and Claims Automation

On Aug 26th, we will be hosting our next virtual event. Core Systems upgrades and improvements continue to be a major theme for carriers looking to transition their products to a digital world. Moving from legacy systems to SaaS or hybrid cloud platforms can be a make-or-break project for IT departments.

It does not have to be that risky. Learn how carriers using agile methodologies to minimize the risk of core systems transformations and incremental upgrades to breathe new functionality into legacy systems. Beyond the core, sessions will explore how to automate claims using InsurTech solutions and robotic process automation (RPA).
