Webinar - How digital technologies are transforming the insurance market
You can’t read an insurance publication without reading about how the insurance market is or is about to be transformed by technology and for those of us who started out in insurance with a fax machine it can be overwhelming!
Certainly, video conferencing, cloud-based document management systems and other digital technologies have served us well in the pandemic but what other technologies will truly help us look after our customers better in the future? Are these technologies a threat or an opportunity?

Webinar - 5 risk management lessons all organisations can learn
Pandemic was Number 1 on many government’s risk register and high on the list of many organisations’ risk radars but its sheer scale surprised us all.
The crisis management planning of many organisations and governments has served them well but at other times we were frantically trying to catch up.
So what risk management lessons can we learn from the pandemic?

Webinar - 4 cyber loss scenarios you should use
Cyber insurance policies are newer, less tested and arguably trickier to understand than property damage/business interruption policies so brokers and insurers must be able to clearly explain to customers the coverage and any limitations to the coverage to prevent similar policy disputes.

Webinar - Developing Virtual Networking Skills
Effective, engaging and enjoyable networking is an important part of your working life and easier than you think when working remotely. But it’s NOT all about using people for your gain. Rather, it IS about a win/win exchange of contacts, information, business referrals, and tips that help the other
person as much as yourself.
