A new conference in Bermuda focused on reinsurance innovation and insurtech will have Hamilton Insurance Group as its lead sponsor.

The event will be focused on disruptive technology and its effect on the evolution of the insurance and reinsurance markets.

Global Reinsurance’s Innovation & Insurtech conference will be held at Rosewood Tucker’s Point on November 6. It is expected to attract more than 200 executive-level representatives of the insurance and technology sectors.

Among the speakers will be James Hobson, CEO of Attune, the technology-enabled platform launched last year by Hamilton, AIG and Two Sigma.

Kathleen Reardon, chief executive officer of Bermudian-based Hamilton Re, said: “We’re pleased to partner with Global Reinsurance, as well as the Bermuda Business Development Agency, in sponsoring and supporting an inaugural event that will examine the future of risk management and the global technology trends affecting that future.

“The conference’s focus on technology and its potential to transform underwriting aligns with Hamilton’s commitment to leverage data science and technology to deliver client and shareholder value. We are looking forward to the Innovation & Insurtech conference becoming a fixture on the Bermuda conference calendar.”
