I’ll be attending Insurtech Insights Europe 2026 this March in London with Prima!

I’m particularly looking forward to discussing the evolving role of AI and LLMs in insurance — from operational efficiency to customer experience and decision intelligence — together with an outstanding panel of industry experts.

The pace of innovation in this space is extraordinary, and events like #ITIEU26 are where meaningful conversations about real-world adoption happen.

If you’re attending, let’s connect and exchange perspectives.
