With all the new technology emerging - and insurers thirsty for knowledge - there’s a growing need for someone to help figure out how to join it all together. Robin Merttens talks to Daren Rudd, VP Consulting - Head of Insurance Business and Technology Consulting, UK at CGI. You’ll hear about Daren’s personal experience and how he and his colleagues are helping insurers engage with new and innovative technology, data and analytics.

Topics covered include:

The most notable developments in how insurers engage with digital from the last decade
Why technology is the new Lego
Why we are looking in the wrong place to solve the industry’s data problem
Success stories in implementing IOT for insurers
Go digital but allow time to dance

The book recommendation from this week’s guest Daren is Digital Darwinism: Survival of the Fittest in the Age of Business Disruption by Tom Goodwin.
