Numerati® Partners Co-hosts InsurTech Science & Engineering Innovation Expo with Guy Carpenter
Numerati® Partners LLC organized and co-hosted the inaugural InsurTech Science and Engineering Innovation Expo on August 9, 2018, the pre-launch event for the InsurTech Alliance – a collaboration between Numerati® Partners and leading global reinsurance specialist Guy Carpenter & Company LLC – to introduce a state of the art, insurer-focused suite of capabilities to help carriers evaluate innovations in data analytics and digital technology products and solutions.
During the proceedings organized in coordination with RiskEcon® Lab @ Courant Institute of Mathematical Sciences NYU and the New York Academy of Sciences, over one hundred senior insurance and reinsurance executives from throughout North America engaged with over seventy leading scientists, engineers and technologists in an intensive program of in-depth discussion and activities focused upon reliable, robust and secure use-case driven innovation and technology adoption. The InsurTech Expo also featured exhibits, hands-on demonstrations and presentations by InsurTech technology companies, enabling insurers to test-drive the InsurTech Alliance and engage with Guy Carpenter, Numerati® Partners and the Numerati® Partners’ ecosystem of technical experts leading the digital technological revolution.
Numerati® Partners coordinates a data analytics and development ecosystem — data scientists, engineers, academic institutions, public and private sector and non-governmental organizations, e.g., think tanks and research institutions — with the mission of advancing the next generation of scalable data-intensive risk and liability management enterprises.
“Wholesale adoption of digital technologies by insurers and reinsurers is not only imminent, but inevitable. More disciplined technology adoption – based on an integrated engineering approach to digital technologies and high dimensional data analytics – is fundamental as a foundation for insurance and reinsurance innovation,” said David K.A. Mordecai, PhD, Co-Managing Member of Numerati® Partners.
