Agenda https://lnkd.in/eNW8Rtam
Great job Jeremy Burgess and Phil Middleton – see you all soon.
I had a terrific day yesterday chairing the Commercial Lines Innovation Europe Conference in London – lots of excellent speakers, insightful panelists and insurtechs showing the art of the possible. Key themes:
– ESG is becoming more and more a necessity, rather than a “nice to consider”
– Disruption is coming from macro-economic trends, including the increasing pace of change and volatility
– Moving to more of an advice/risk management-based model
– The need for much more agility to respond quicker, with tech as a big enabler for this
– The opportunity to marry together internal and external data (even real-time risk data) to enrich the service offering and customer experience, as well as fuel more accurately underwriting
Big thanks to the speakers and panelists for answering my challenging questions and providing such great insights !
Live**** What a fantastic event… more information to follow
An amazing demo day of the latest IoT and sensor offerings for commercial properties – big thanks to our sponsors, Lloyd’s Lab, and the wide array of excellent presenters.

What a day ! LexisNexis sure know how to pull off a great CAM 2022 Customer event “Customer connections Re-imagined” in the majestic St Pancras Hotel, London. Privileged to speak and moderate on Contributory Data and the future of Claims.
Very impressive key note speakers – Bill Madison “Be a company that is ready to accelerate”, Dame Stella Remington – her job “get the right people, with the right tool and ensure they know the laws” (awesome speaker) and the formidable Steven Bartlett (Dragons Den) “Better to be the opposite of the stereotype – face it head on in a very bold way – rewrite the book !”
Big thanks to Carrie Heath and her team for pulling off a brilliant day and to my fellow panelists – Carla McDonald BA DipM ACIM, Anna Collier, Hugh Hessing, James Dawson, James York, Garrick Douthwaite, Nic Sproul and Kajal Vakas
The Camelot Network loves to help entrepreneurs…in this case Richard Lawrence founder of City Bouldering (a stone’s throw from the City). A really fun afternoon crafting out innovative team-building offerings for the corporate world.
