InsurTech: a leading voice in digital insurance
Since early 2015, I have written about the digitisation of the insurance industry. At the time the talk in financial services was about Fintech, but this was almost entirely banking focussed. Nobody was looking at the opportunity to apply new tech-enabled business models to change and improve the way that insurance was delivered. Or so everyone thought. Because when I started looking, I found plenty of examples of insurance innovation amongst technology startups. The hashtag 'InsurTech' entered the vernacular in mid-2016 as the interest had grown to dominate the insurance industry agenda
And for the rest of the decade, I interviewed, coached and invested in 100's of InsurTech startups. I also wrote over 100 articles that covered all lines of business and the entire value chain of an insurance organisation. Here is a selection of some of those articles, many of them still relevant today.
