In preparation for the Creative Disruption event in Boston on November 3rd, Celent surveyed insurers to gather their views on using creative disruption to bring sustained, fundamental change to their organizations. By creative disruption, we mean implementing the initiatives that are required to fundamentally alter how insurance products are developed, implemented, and serviced.
With over 90 insurer responses, the two areas with the highest potential value for disruption are customer service experience and product design. These processes will be explored in depth at the event, as insurance IT executives present how their organizations used tools such as modern policy administration systems and agile development to deliver materially different results to their business. For more information on the event, please visit http://celentinsurance.eventbrite.com/. If you cannot attend, you can follow the event on Twitter at #creativedisruption.
