FinTech Wales showcases the very best of Welsh insurtech innovation at Europe’s largest insurtech conference.
The independent membership association FinTech Wales brought a panel of Welsh innovators to the Orange stage on Wednesday to discuss the latest trends and developments in the Welsh insurance and insurtech landscape at the Insurtech Insights conference in London.
The panel ‘Data-driven Personalisation: Exploring the Possibilities in Insurance‘ shared their expert vision on the challenges and opportunities that come with the incorporation of insurtech in the Welsh insurance industry – and its ultimate impact on the Welsh economy.
Sarah Williams-Gardener, CEO of FinTech Wales, hosted Louise O’Shea, former CEO of confused.com and chair of FinTech Wales alongside founders Toby Kernon of Wagonex, Rob Korzinek of Zing and Alex Mills of Dynamo Cover for the 40-minute session.
Welsh insurtech gains momentum
The panel discussion brought to light the innovation happening in Wales and presented valuable insights for insurance professionals and insurtech enthusiasts who have an interest in the future of insurtech and insurance in Wales.
“The innovation we are seeing and pace at which we are moving forward in insurtech in Wales is so exciting,” comments Williams-Gardener. “The discussion [came] at a pivotal time when artificial intelligence, machine learning and blockchain technology are quickly advancing.”
“Wales has been at the forefront of innovation in the insurance sector since Admiral set up in Cardiff 30 years ago,” she continues.
“Our panel of speakers represent today’s entrepreneurial industry leaders that are passionate about their customers and are excited to see Wales’ innovations in insurtech, cutting-edge technologies and strategies being implemented more broadly to ensure the UK leads the way.”
“We will cover the protection of data, the wider world of open data, the challenges and opportunities the industry faces, as well as the latest industry trends and much more. We look forward to presenting at this important event and continuing this dialogue at the Insurtech Insights conference,” concludes Williams-Gardener
