Up to DIA #12

Up to DIA is back today on Tuesday. So, in this week's edition, we'll discuss many topics, such as our new logo, event page, video presentations of Munich 2022, and editorials and answer some questions you might have!

Questions such as why did you move to Barcelona, what happened to Amsterdam, when is the event in Munich happening, can I purchase tickets already, where are the photos of Munich, will there be a highlight movie for Munich, did Sinterklaas' ship really sink, who will win the world cup, when is the DIA top 100, how do you choose which videos get uploaded first. So many questions, yet so few answers. Well, you'll find out which questions we'll answer by reading this week's Up to DIA :^)

Let's kick things off with some video presentations as always. Today, I can happily announce the third batch of video presentations from DIA Munich 2022. With this, we're currently sitting on 24 videos released out of 56.

The first video features Egmont Philips , Head of Europe, Digital Marketing & CX Practice at 塔塔咨询服务公司 . In this video, insurers can learn from Jaguar TCS Formula E racing, as well as a roadmap to data-driven and iconic customer journeys, including the solutions they see.

Now onto our brand new event page for ITC DIA Europe, taking place next year in Barcelona 2023. ITC DIA will be hosting two events next year, one in Barcelona and the other one in Munich again. As always, we at ITC DIA love to explore beautiful cities and would like to share our recommendations with you once again. With so many places to stay and eat, we think you'll also fall in love with Barcelona just as we have. Ticket sale is also open now and our Pre-pre sale tickets start at just €995 (€2,000 at the door). We'll be adding new exciting tidbits as we go to the website so stay tuned for more.

You probably also noticed that we are now going by ITC DIA and with that, we require a new logo. Well, it's actually just ITC Europe and Digital Insurance Agenda stacked on top of each other.

Back to the videos is Brushlink Inc. , presented by CEO Nazar Kamangar, MBA and Director of Strategic Partnerships Roxanna Abedi . In this demo the ladies highlighted Brushlink's innovative, easy-to-implement and cost-efficient solution for insurers and consumers to improve their oral health care by virtue of improved brushing behavior.

Brushing your teeth gives you a fresh feeling in your mouth, so next on stage is FRISS (for the non-Dutchies, fris means fresh). Presented by Global Partner Manager Bas de Graaf at FRISS and consultant Sarah Yeary at msg nexinsure Karriere . They Show & Tell'd how FRISS (AI-powered insurance fraud detection) was seamlessly integrated into the core claims solution provider msg nexinsure.

Head of Strategy Harry Forss at K2G was in Munich 2022 to present big data, behavioural change, road risk reports, driver warnings and explain how kasko2go continues their meaningful services for the insurance and mobility industry with their AI-based risk assessments.

PeakProfiling GmbH 's Medical Affairs Manager Dr. Julia Volkening took the Show & Tell stage to present piano sounds? No, that isn't quite right. She used a nice example of two piano recordings, one by a professional and the other by a non-professional to showcase that it is quite subjective as to what is professional and what is not. PeakProfiling managed to quantify and objectify this 'subjectiveness' and with their technology they demonstrate the benefits it can have in health insurance.

This behavioural change company Virgin Pulse also took the Show & Tell stage together with Health Management to showcase their collab in the UK. Virgin Pulse's Ludovic Pureur , Regional Vice President, International Partnerships and Dr. Alex Smallwood from Health Management talked about how Health Management moved to Virgin Pulse after their disastrous first experience with a third party's incumbent solution. Citing complexity, prevention knowledge, budget and limited resources as the main cause.

3rd-eyes analytics AG is an insurtech specialised in hyper-personalisation. Senior Director Business Development DACH Holger P?tschke , demo'd their flexible and modular SaaS solution by simulating the wealth development of potential customers with and without life events. The solution instantly visualizes which impact factors can influence the customers' personal financial situation.

Last but not least is CEO Tobias Wann from Xempus and his presentation on the latest highlights of the XEMPUS SaaS platform, more specifically XEMPUS advisor. Tobias also gave the audience a sneak peek of their now-released new corporate health insurance offering.

This week we also have a Thought Leadership interview article featuring Azure Risk and its CEO Anmol Sawlani . They provide Edge, a digital platform focused on cargo and freight forwarders liability insurance and also offer tailored range of multi-line commercial and personal insurance products. During this interview, Anmol talks about Azure Risk as a company and the opportunities he sees.
