TechFest2024: Navigating the agile age

It’s the insurtech event of the year! TechFest2024 takes place online on 21 and 22 May, followed by a cocktail networking function. The event is free to attend thanks to contributions from sponsors – including our own partners at SSP.

This year the theme is “Thriving in the age of agile: Competing with flexibility, integration and innovation in insurance technology,” which will delve into agility’s pivotal role in reshaping the sector.

“These days the narrative of agility isn’t just a buzzword, it’s a strategic imperative!” says COVER magazine editor Tony van Niekerk, host of the conference. “TechFest2024 will delve into this narrative, highlighting the pressing challenges and abundant opportunities facing insurers.”

The conference will highlight the urgency for insurers to adapt their offerings, seamlessly integrate state-of-the-art technology and drive a culture of relentless innovation.

At the forefront of discussions are the transformative powers of Software as a Service (SaaS) solutions and the strategic advantages of cloud migration. These sessions will offer invaluable insights into maintaining operational flexibility throughout the digital transformation journey, empowering insurers to thrive amidst fierce competition.

“We have an eclectic mix of attendees joining us from across the financial services industry, including brokers, directors, financial advisers, underwriters, claims managers, and CEOs,” says Tony. “TechFest2024 promises a wealth of knowledge and actionable strategies for all stakeholders invested in the convergence of insurance and technology.”

TechFest2024 will close with an exclusive in-person cocktail function.

“The traditional cocktail function allows attendees to forge new connections and expand their industry networks, fostering collaborations that drive innovation and growth,” says Tony.
