Event details
Our final InsureInsight event of the year will cover two topics of huge interest to the insurance sector, with fantastic guest speakers lined up to provide essential insights on two key issues impacting insurers and to answer the questions we are all asking:

- AI and Insurers: Has the tipping point arrived? With Jacob Palmer, Partner, Boston Consulting Group and Iman Karimi, Associate Director – Data Science and Global Lead of AI in insurance distribution for Boston Consulting Group, and Andrew Jacobs, Partner and Head of Regulatory Consulting, DWF
