PremiumBytes, Episode 001: What's an insurance CIO to do with #AI

Welcome to #PremiumBytes, where we shine a light on the unsung world of #insurancetechnology leaders. We are Sudhar Krishnamachary, one of your co-hosts and Samir Ahmed, your other co-host. We're here to have meaningful conversations about the evolving #technology landscape inside the #insuranceindustry. Let's acknowledge it: being an #insurance firm #CIO, or chief information officer, (and also #CTO, or chief technology officer) is one of the toughest #leadership roles in today's world. You've got a risk averse mindset baked into the very fabric of the industry, a legacy estate that must complement the modern tech, and a talent crisis from both the retiring side and next-gen recruiting side. And then you have the slow pace of #innovation. We see it because we're right there in the trenches with you, as consultants, day in and day out. Our mission is to deep dive, have conversations that carry substance, offer practical insights, and help you validate and navigate the relevant challenges of being an effective CIO in the insurance sector. So thank you for joining us on this adventure.
