CN&CO is abuzz with excitement ahead of the 2019 Cover Insurtech Conference, which takes place on 25 and 26 March at the Wanderers Club in Illovo, Johannesburg.

Cover magazine editor-in-chief, Tony van Niekerk, and his team have a formidable line-up of presenters from across the insurance spectrum, who look set to keep us all mesmerised with their lateral thinking and applications.

“Technology is no longer a competitive advantage; it is fast becoming just a ticket to the game,” says Tony. “With insurtech driving a holistic digitisation process that impacts, challenges and disrupts conventional thinking, the focus is now on true innovation.

“It is all about finding those pain points in your user experience where insurtech solutions will enable class leading innovation. With AI, bots and data analytics now available to even the smallest of businesses and brave new startups, a culture of innovation and rapid implementation is essential in our highly competitive insurance environment.”

With regards to the 2019 conference, Tony has this to say:

“I am confident that we have built exponentially on last year’s event. I am particularly excited about the fact that we are addressing the insurance technology environment comprehensively and holistically.

“I want this to be the biggest yet! Everyone who has to make business decisions in the industry where technology can play a role (which is about 99% of our space) will benefit greatly by attending.”

Come and hear all about the big, wide world of tech from insurers, reinsurers, intermediaries, tech startups and service providers – among others.
