The Mayor of Hartford, CT on fostering insurance innovationHartford, Connecticut has a big insurance industry and its mayor Luke Bronin wants to keep it that way. That’s why he is attending Insurtech Connect 2018. “We’ve been home to many insurance companies for over a hundred years,” he said. Bronin is looking to connect with executives from big insurance companies, of course.
InsureTech Connect 2018 Presented by Oliver Wyman brought together over 5,500 leaders from startups, incumbents, investors, regulators and more. With participants representing 55 countries ITC has quickly become the world’s largest insurance industry gathering and the most efficient way to connect with the people who are changing the industry.
