Up to 25 delegates from insurers, brokers and insurtechs will attend a leadership program called Digital Minds Evolve in August.

The event is part of a suite run by training group EDII, which has operated in the UK insurance market since 2021 and has alumni at Allianz, Aon, Beazley, Markel and more.

Digital Minds Evolve, the first session of a series in Australia, is at the InterContinental Double Bay on August 11-12.

EDII partnered with Insurtech Australia to introduce the program here.

“We identified a gap in bringing innovation to market to drive real change and efficiency,” IA CEO Simone Dossetor said.

“In supporting this program, we look to strengthen capability and bridge the gap between insurers and insurtechs.”

The program has been shaped with IA to reflect challenges faced by the Australian market: AI adoption, embedded insurance, climate risk and regulatory change.

Local industry experts will share their experience alongside EDII CEO Caroline Bedford.

“We have spent five years building something that works in the UK and we want to bring that to Australia with people who know this market, not just people who’ve read about it. Partnering with Insurtech Australia gives us that,” Ms Bedford said.

Digital Minds Evolve Australia is accredited by ANZIIF for up to 12 hours of CPD.
