Fireside Chat: From Infrastructure to Imagination: Technology as Strategic Leverage
Technology is no longer a back-office function. For insurers, it increasingly shapes how operating models evolve, how decisions are made, and how organizations balance growth, efficiency, compliance, and customer trust. This fireside chat explores how executives move beyond incremental IT upgrades and use technology as a strategic lever for business reinvention. The conversation will look at how insurers align technology investments with growth ambitions, why many transformations stall despite funding, and which leadership patterns help turn modernization into lasting business value. It will also explore the critical step from imagining new operating models to having the courage to act on them. In insurance, the challenge is often not a lack of ideas or ambition. Many insurers can clearly see the potential in areas such as embedded insurance, AI and automation. The harder part is changing products, processes, governance and decision rights so the organisation can actually capture the opportunity.
