I had the opportunity to attend 2018 ITA Live this past April in Fort Lauderdale. This year’s theme was Customer 2.0: Insurance Transformation Driver. The many insurance technology executives in attendance listened to a range of customer engagement- and transformation-themed presentations, but the highlight of the conference was the ITA Bridge Awards announcement. These awards honor technology/business teams that have demonstrated that their collaboration leads to successful initiatives.
