Customer expectations are changing, and so are the technologies that fuel customers’ interactions with a brand.

For the banking industry, the pressure to pursue digital innovation began years ago. Today, insurance companies feel a similar push to modernize their products, operations, and customer experience.

In this webinar, you’ll hear from Chris Hart, EVP of Client Success at Levvel, an Endava company, Jamie Kalamarides, CEO of Bear North, LLC, and Roshina Nandra, Global SVP of Product Acceleration at Endava, as we explore the intersection of insurance and banking innovation.

Discover what insurers can learn from the path banking has taken and how those lessons can translate into strategies for success.
