Senior managers are facing unprecedented challenges in today’s hyper-competitive, “lean and mean” environment. The winners are those who can expertly execute a combination of business, technology, and process strategies. The 2006 Canadian Insurance Technology Forum will help position senior business and technology professionals from P&C insurers and brokers in the winner’s camp.
Two of Canada’s leading insurance information sources – Insurance-Canada.ca and CI-Canadian Insurance Magazine – have teamed up to present a focused, one-day conference that will provide a business-oriented view of the best-of-breed technology and processes, to support innovative product, service, and distribution strategies. We have assembled a faculty that includes leading technology suppliers, management consultants, and practitioners who will address:
- Streamlined underwriting methods and systems;
- Data-driven customer segmentation and business intelligence;
- Technology-enabled distribution, including integrated Web portals;
- Executive information systems;
- Electronic Document and Workflow Management.
Keynote presenters will describe the current, as well as emerging, technology landscapes in business terms to allow for better planning and budgeting.
The integration of broker and company systems, in real time, is moving into mainstream. End-to-end transaction processing further enables the “once and done” philosophy, but requires that quoting, rating, underwriting — policy management and customer management systems at both broker and company — be part of a single work flow and procedural environment. Learn how these challenges are being tackled.
Delegates will have ample opportunity to network with presenters and other attendees who share common interests and concerns. An exhibit area will feature leading suppliers, who can provide details on their technology offerings.
Attend “2006 Canadian Insurance Technology Forum: P&C Products, Services and Distribution” on February 28 to better prepare for the next steps you take. Register today!
