Hut34 and MNC introduce innovative ‘Agile Data’ InsureTech
Tags: Data, Agile, Data Science, Insurtech

Increase Data Velocity, and make Secure Data Rooms easy for teams

Our mission here at Hut34 is to solve data problems — because data solves problems! We have been working closely with MNC recently, to understand the sorts of data problems they face day to day.

In this post, we are going to cover one of the most popular features — how using our ‘Data Hut’ technology increases the velocity of data on a project — and makes the creation and management of Secure Data Rooms very, very simple for teams.

Data Velocity as a concept is simply how quickly data moves between stakeholders in a project, and is analogous to the ‘velocity of money’ concept well known to create value, and therefore the better the outcomes.

In practical terms, there are many points of friction that decrease data velocity, and other hand-brakes that prevent organisations from increasing their data performance — we find often the root cause of many problems comes from people struggling to achieve more than two from the following triangle of success;

This is where we come in!

Hut34 Secure Data Rooms — or what we call ‘Huts’ — provide a rigorous technical implementation which satisfies the requirements of security and compliance, whilst also ensuring stakeholders can quickly access data they need either from an easy-to-use front end, for the non technical, or directly into the software of choice for a data scientist — from R Studio, to Tableau, Excel and beyond.

Using innovative encryption key management, linked to your corporate sign on / identity, Data Huts provide all of the necessary ‘pipes’ to allow permissioned users to create secure data rooms, and smart data objects using our ‘hutX’ protocol. The ability to be Secure, Portable, and Easy to use — even when sharing data with contractors or other stakeholders, is what really unlocks the value in your data.

In a future post, we will also tell you more about the powerful and immutable audit trail which provides both peace of mind from a risk perspective, and opens up powerful productivity and collaboration options!

This has been a very brief introduction to the concept of Data Velocity. If you can improve your Data Velocity, you will get more value from your data, reduce costs and timelines considerably and be able to engage all stakeholders more actively in data projects of all scales.

Glad to double down on Insurtech champion Akur8!
By: Blackfin Tech
Tags: France, AI, Portfolio, Startup, Insurtech

Our first investment in Akur8 was also our first disclosed investment in 2020. Since then, a lot of things happened for the company — in addition to the pandemic macro change obviously.

Less than two years after it was incorporated out of startup studio Kamet Ventures and just 15 months after we led Akur8’s Series A, stating that the company — whose mission is to empower actuaries with its transparent IA — has achieved a lot sounds like an euphemism.

First, the team signed several Tier-1 clients like AXA, Generali and Munich Re, but also specialty insurers Canopius and Tokio Marine Kiln, insurtechs Wakam and wefox, as well as mutualistic player Matmut.

With its existing clients, Akur8 expanded its operations from one country to several countries. Today, the AI powered platform is daily used by 350 users within insurers’ pricing teams, to compute their pricing models across P&C, personal and commercial lines, and health.

They hired one of the most diverse top team we’ve ever seen, with 20 nationalities represented out of 50 talented employees. Thanks to this unbelievable mix of people, no wonder that they managed to win commercial deals as far away as Colombia or Japan!

Since we first invested in Akur8, the team successfully opened offices in London and New York, in addition to its Parisian headquarter.

Thanks to this $30m funding round, Akur8 will accelerate its expansion over the US first — as it’s the largest insurance market in the world — before settling in APAC in 2022.

An energic team of 20 different nationalities

If you still wonder why we back this amazing team… Well, mainly for 3 reasons:
4 things you MUST do to build a successful insurance product
Tags: Broker, Insurance Software, Insurance Companies, Insurance, Insurtech

4 things you MUST do to build a successful insurance product

1. Ask yourself, why should your customers care?

How is your product going to change your target customer’s life? What difference will it make? What is special or unique about it which means they’ll not only be telling their colleagues, but their friends!

Give your customers a reason to care. If it’s not remarkable, people won’t talk about it.

Put this question at the forefront of your mind when making decisions relating to your product. Ignore it, at your peril!

2. Find out how can you help the communities in which your customers hang out.

RESEARCH. What does this community need? What are they asking for? Do your research and find that hole your product could fill. See if you can genuinely connect with communities, WITHOUT selling. This will make all the difference to your research, and to your brand.

Cheeky tip; think about what you can give these communities for free — is it an app, a website? What would they absolutely love?

3. Keep your insurer happy.

What does your insurer need? What are they frequently asking for, or struggling with? Is it MI? Reports? Data exports? Have the answer for them, before they even ask the question.

Get ahead of the game, and it will change the conversation FOREVER.

4. Make customer experience your guiding light.

We could go on… and on… and on… about the importance of customer experience. So to save your mental well-being here are the highlights.

If you can shave a few questions off your question set so customers can get a quote and buy in record time — and this applies to business customers too — then do it.

Keep reinforcing the value of completing your form wherever you can, and make it as easy as possible.

There is always a slicker way, and the difference it will make is your customers will return again and again … and they’ll bring others!

‘A Walker study in 2020 found that customer experience will overtake price and product as the key brand differentiator.’

By: Priyank Jain
Tags: Alcoholism, Alcohol, Smoking, Tobacco, Tobacco Industry

The U.S. tobacco market is expected to reach USD 119.3 billion by 2025, according to a study conducted by Grand View Research, Inc. Increasing consumer disposable income and availability of superior products such as customized e-cigarettes and pipes have bolstered the market growth.

Increasing consumption of tobacco by the youth and female population are boosting the market growth. For instance, as per the SMEs, 14.3 billion women were smokers in the U.S. in 2012.

Increasing health consciousness and government initiatives to control tobacco-related diseases might hamper the market growth. For instance, in 2016, Department of Health planned to introduce a bill to ban the sale of cigarettes from vending machines.

Stringent government regulations pertaining tobacco production, and distribution may slow down the market growth. Additionally, high prices of tobacco products might hamper the market. Therefore, tobacco producing companies are focusing on developing affordable solutions.

“I died twice.” Michael
By: Stories Behind The Fog
Tags: Alcoholism, Recovery, Stories Behind The Fog, Homelessness, Stories

I learned how to drink alcohol in college, fun times. Pints of beers, and shots of whatever. Two weeks after I graduated, I got a call from Lenny Silver, owner of the Record Theater Store, in Buffalo. I thought I would work there in the store, putting price tags on albums. During my interview I saw that he had a poster of the band Spyro Gyra, and I had my (operated) heart in my mouth. I said: “Hey, I know their drummer.’ Mr. Silver called him and the guy said I was great with numbers, so Lenny hired me as his Chief Financial Officer. Two weeks after graduation, I tell you! The job was lots of pressure, lots of pizza, and lots of pot. I lasted for nine months. I knew I had to grow up.

Then, I went into the mortgage industry for many years. The most recent gig was as a telephone mortgage person. I could close 20 loans in 6 weeks, I don’t know anyone who can do that. I had a computer in my bedroom, big speakers, headphones. I got up at 5AM so I could talk to people in Asia, Africa, whatever. But I didn’t get my payments in time, so I had to leave my home on Pine Street, because I couldn’t pay the rent anymore. I wish I hadn’t been drinking at that time so I would still have some money.

“If nobody had found me, they could have pulled a sheet over my face.”

Founderstalk India- India’s Biggest B2B Marketplace
By: Founders Talk
Tags: B2b Market Place, B2b Marketplace, B2b Marketing, B2B, B2b Portal

India is among the fastest-growing e-commerce marketplace on earth. What is even more intriguing is that contrary to popular belief, the stupendous growth of e-commerce isn’t driven solely by B2C eCommerce. Rather, using its large purchase size and sheer quantity, B2B eCommerce has taken the lead in this growth.

While the people are active purchasing on popular multi-vendor portals such as Amazon and Flipkart dealers, suppliers, and distributors have located their very own shopping hub around the Indian B2B online marketplaces.

While those traditionally brick-and-mortar businesses are still thinking of approaches to go online, popular Indian B2B multi-vendor marketplaces have revolutionized how wholesale business has been done a couple of short years back. These portals are providing better opportunities for wholesalers, distributors, and suppliers to make and attain new customers and markets.

Founderstalk

FounderstalkIndia.com is an online B2B marketplace for exporters & importers. Founderstalk is one of India’s biggest online marketplace, connecting buyers with suppliers. Our online channel concentrates on supplying a platform for SMEs, large enterprises as well as individuals.



Every B2B organization has its own way of doing business. Founderstalk India supports the Unique digital transformation needs of Wholesalers, Manufacturers, and Procurement entities, even in complex business environments.



In a traditional B2B marketplace, one seller participates in eCommerce with a number of buyers. A B2B marketplace brings multiple buyers and vendors around a single site. The marketplace operator may market their own products and services as well as functioning as the marketplace operator, only operating the marketplace.



Give your customers the option and experience they’re utilized to as consumers while meeting their business purchasing needs. That can be a business-to-business marketplace for the modern buyer.
Influencers v/s Decision Makers — whom should we reach out to?
By: Ashwin Krishna
Tags: SaaS, B2b Marketing, Sales, Lead Generation, Digital Marketing

Popular Opinion: Every sales/marketing person in SaaS wants a meeting with CXO. Fair enough.

Reality: Managers/Influencers have equal power compared to CXOs

The reality is CXOs ask managers to scout for potential solutions

Managers typically use the product.

They know what is the need of the hour.

If you bypass managers, sometimes things don’t work.

I vividly remember cases where CXOs mentioned “Talk to my subordinate”. I am ok only if he/she vets the solution.

How do you balance the power centers?

Step 1) Draw the full buying center / all the personas

a) Buyer/decision-maker: Who owns the budget and who can take the final decision

b) Business influencer/manager: Potential product user.

c) Technology influencer/manager: The CIO/CTO org. Sometimes they are the buyers

d) Coach: Someone in the company who believes in you and can feed you the essential information

Step 2) Build messaging for a, b, c segments based on the JTBD framework

Step 3) Reach out to influencers and buyers simultaneously. Every company has different power centers.

Step 4) Have the influencers in all the required conversations. Build trust. Make them your coach and best friend. Celebrate them when the deal closes.

Never ignore managers/influencers. They can/break a deal.
Customer Success is not the sole owner of SaaS Customer Churn

Customer Success is not the sole owner of SaaS Customer Churn Ashwin Krishna Jun 17·1 min read

Don’t get me wrong. Here are Top reasons for churn, which are not related to Customer Success.

1> It all starts with the wrong ICP

If you have onboarded a bunch of customers who are not you ICP / there is no clear customer-product fit, there are high chances for churn

Action: Let go of wrong / non-ICP customers. It’s better to not have them v/s creating detractors in the market.

2> Secondly, Overselling. If you have oversold a dream and deliver nothing, automatically the customer will churn.

Action: Land an account with a realistic contract value and expand as you create value.

3> Customer experience is important. Sales-Implementation-Customer Success handoff is supercritical.

Many times the churn happens because of expectation-mismatch.

Action: Make sure Sales, Implementation, and CS work on a single source of truth/documents.

Let implementation and CS teams get involved in the negotiation/late-proposal stage so that post-sales teams are aligned with the customer expectations.

Be proactive in tracking “value creation metrics” for your customer.

Let's say you have an HRMS software, one of the value creation metrics will be weekly/monthly engaged employees on the platform.

Next time, when you want to do an RCA (Root Cause Analysis) for churn, consider the larger picture.

Do narcissists face Karma?
By: Heal With Sumit
Tags: Narcissistic Personality, Abuse, Narcissistic Abuse, Healing From Trauma, Narcissism

There is no doubt that narcissists do some real damage to people around them. They manage to shatter the soul of their victim to the extent where the victim is left confused, full of self-doubt, and in some circumstances may even consider ending their lives. This raises a very important question: do narcissists end up paying for abusing, hurting, and destroying the lives of their victims? Is Karma going to get them?

I recently posed this question in my healing group on Facebook. Most members believed Karma will eventually get narcissists or that they are already facing Karma. Some were not sure if Karma is punishing their narcs but they hope that someday their narc would get what he/she deserves. Lastly, a few thought narcissists do not get punished by Karma.

Karma is a beautiful concept of Eastern philosophy. It can be summed up as “the evil you do stays with you, and the good you do comes back to you”.

It motivates us to be good and do good while staying away from abusing and hurting others. If this concept is true, why do narcissists seem to be doing good or being okay? When will they face Karma, if they ever will? It is also important to know the answer to this question for the peace of our minds and to let go of the feeling of revenge which many victims usually hold on to.

Now before I go any further, I want you to read this with an open heart as what you are about to read is going to change your perspective towards the narcissist who abused you. You will notice a shift in the way you look at narcissists, resulting in less bitterness against your narc — and as a result you will end up with more room for self-love in your heart.

Narcissists look confident, brutal, strong, and lucky. The image they project is of someone who enjoy abusing others. They seem to be nowhere close to facing Karma. But, the truth is that they have been facing some utter bad luck since their childhood. Yup, that’s right, they are already facing the wrath of Karma and they will continue to until their last breath.

Their lives can be summarised this way — struggling to be loved; abusing and pushing the love away; end up dying alone.
Can You Really Visualize Your Pain Away?

Can You Really Visualize Your Pain Away?

According to Dr. Wayne Phimister, you can! When pain comes around, there’s no better way to reduce it than visualizing what you’ll do before taking action. Dr Wayne Phimister Jun 17, 2019·2 min read

Watch Dr. Wayne Phimister’s original livestream for this talk. Follow him on Facebook, where you can send him your questions about living a healthier, happier life free from pain.

Would you believe if I told you that it’s possible to reduce pain with a technique called “visualization”? Well, it is possible!

Visualization is a technique that I’ve been using with some of my patients for a while and it’s all about using your brain to visualize the action you’re going to do before doing it. This method is described in a book called “Brain’s Way of Healing”, written by Norman Doidge, who is a psychiatrist and neuroscientist from Toronto.

Visualization is used more than we think: many professional athletes who take part in the biggest competitions around the world, like World Championships and the Olympic Games, apply this to have a better psychological approach to their programs. What they literally do is to go over the exercise or their performance with visualization a hundred times.

So, you can apply this in our daily life by closing, or not closing, your eyes and start visualizing the activity you’re about to do. Just try to see yourself doing that activity once, twice, and again, and again.

If it’s possible, I recommend you to spend between 10–15 minutes doing this. You can also combine it with many different meditation techniques. You only have to find what results the best for you.

By using this method you’ll be using your brain’s neuron circuits to expand and help yourself to do all the activities you propose to yourself, whatever the activity is.

There’s a second thing to say about visualization, which came not only from the book but also from the patients I treated this week. When you are doing an exercise, just try to think about and focus on what you are doing.

When we focus on what we are doing we are actually using our brain circuits in a special way to amplify the effects of our activity.

There’s an example of that in a case of a South-African man who had Parkinson’s disease and was able to regrow nerve pathways by focusing on what he was doing. After 30 years of his diagnosis, he’s still able to walk freely.

Finally, I would like to mention the work of Feldenkrais, who was a fellow from Israel that developed a technique of self-awareness. He believes that when we are thinking about what we are doing, you get inhibitory neurons that act like a calming effect in our nervous system.

I truly recommend to slow down and think about the activity you’re doing. Keep in mind that your brain is changing a little step by step, and it can help you deal with your chronic pain situation.
Reflections on grief, healing and transformation

#19 My cloak of many colours

I don’t romanticize grief and I don’t ascribe meaning to it. We like to think that what’s happening to us is new and unique. Actually, it’s boring. Someone, probably someone you know, is going through what you’re going through right now. Before therapy and memoirs about pain and loss, your great-great-great-grandmother had lost a couple of children in infancy before she turned 21. Trauma is presented as this great teacher, come to impart hard truths before leaving again for you to enjoy sunnier climes. Nope.

Grief didn’t interrupt my carefree life. I’ve always had sadness wrapped around me like a thick cloak and I just didn’t realise it. It silently directed everything I did. I lived in its shadow, wondering why everything felt so heavy sometimes, why things which seemed easy for others, were so hard for me.

A few months ago, I had to fill out some official paperwork and I went through my usual bout of panic attacks. I’ve always hated filling out forms. I get especially bothered by the proof of address field. I feel illegitimate, like an imposter or a fraud. This time was no different. I trembled, started sweating and pacing. I imagined someone knocking down my door, leading me away from everyone I love. I imagined being put on a plane and sent far away. My husband had to fill out the rest of my forms. That’s how we spent two whole days. Me on the couch crying. His voice patiently reassuring me that I had nothing to worry about. I put my fingers to my cloak of grief, and I felt its velvety weight around my shoulders.

When I was 8, I had a dog, a turtle and a stone garden seat. I used to walk through a living room that was carpeted in forest green and down a long corridor to my bedroom. I wore a navy uniform and blew into the morning air to laugh at the sight of my breath. Then, I never saw any of that again and everything was different. I still think, after all these years, that if I go back to that little town, I might just see my dog. After 25 years, only one of which contained therapy, I see why I have spent my life looking over my shoulder, waiting for everything to collapse around me like a pack of cards.

It isn’t fair that this happened to me. However, now that I have acknowledged grief as an old friend, I turn to it and in its treacherous caverns, I see possibility. Maybe things can be different for me. I imagine myself at 8. I tell that child that I now have the options, resources and tools she never had. I have the agency that was denied her. I wish I could tell you that my anxiety drifted away like a leaf in the wind. It didn’t. But it was a huge step for me. My grief was still heavy, but I realised that I don’t have to keep looking back anymore. Maybe I can find the courage to look forward.
In Memoriam

On March 16, 2021, six Asian women were murdered in the Atlanta area. Each woman had a full and complex life. In these women we see our moms, aunts, daughters, and sisters. As they join our ancestors, their legacies are now part of our collective history.

In this moment, we offer healing words as seeds of inspiration and comfort for the long path ahead. Healing takes time, time is healing; they differ for each individual. In memoriam, we hope this community-centered series offers solace for our mending hearts.

With the Spring Equinox, we find meaning in natural life forms that perpetually adapt and regenerate. The weeping willow tree is one of the first trees in Georgia to produce leaves during the spring. Its sweeping branches bend without breaking and welcomes feelings of safety and belonging.

In the early 20th century, many Koreans left their homelands to escape imperial rule carrying spacious dreams. Mugunghwa, Korea’s “eternal blossom that never fades”, represents the long and difficult journey of its diaspora. Highly tolerant of adverse conditions, the Korean rose shares similar origins with the Cherokee rose, a symbol of Indigenous women’s inherent strength.

The Luna moth, also known as the Asian American moon moth, is sometimes found in the South during its brief lifespan on Earth. A vulnerable nocturnal species, they fly with their wings wide open, determined to find light.

Likewise, we carry on with love for our intersectional communities as our north star. It is in our nature to survive, adapt, and take care of each other.
No one deserves to be lonely.

It was a decent night, cold breeze flowing through, the bright moon was up, an ideal day for a good long night walk.

Time was a little late so most of my neighbors were asleep, almost every building’s light was off, except one. While passing I saw through the window of that house, stories of losses were well known, it was the house that had recently lost two of its three family members to COVID-19. The light was from the dining room, which had a window facing the main road. The person sitting there was the only surviving member of that family, around 60 years old neighborhood uncle, who moved here around five-six years back to relish his retirement. But was left lonely by this tragedy.

A thought hit my mind which was short yet a strong one:

“No one deserves to be lonely”

Sometimes we want to be by ourselves just in our thoughts. Is that loneliness? No, that is a state, the state of being “alone”, which sometimes is by choice, whereas, “loneliness” is a feeling, the feeling of having no one, which is an unhappy state of mind and is without choice.

I stopped and thought of saying “Hi”, as soon as I started moving towards his house, I froze, soon enough that soothing cold breeze became colder than you can enjoy, the brightness of the moon became dimmer than it was before. It was my mind questioning me, what are you going to talk about, will it be, How is he? or How can I help you? Or something different. That genuine smile, exchanging morning greetings from his lawn, waving his hands to get your attention is not going to be the same anymore. That moment took away all my courage, I somehow wasn’t able to move towards him anymore.

I stepped back, looked at those stars twinkling through the sky. As a child, we are often told, “those who leave us for eternity become stars”. Maybe that’s true. The losses, the grief, the loneliness maybe it’s just temporary.

That day, I couldn’t walk, I came back, I felt tired by just walking two blocks.

There is no happy ending to this incident. This is not just about my neighborhood uncle or pandemic. Look around you, many smiles are waving through their lawns waiting for your attention. Say “Hi” because this is true:
The Best Version of me

Life is what you make it.

Before starting this blog ,I would like to thank some very important people of my life .

Papa & My Grandmother (without you it wont be possible for me to reach here ,thank you for trusting me even in my worst times )

God (My Strength , My Pillar )

Life was never easy for me ,Since i started exploring myself .Being me a simple girl who grew up in small town city like bongaigaon , I used to carry a very good and positive opinion about people .

But i was wrong , nowadays infact being good to people is also a curse as far as i have seen in my entire life.

Being me a karma believer i believe the good you do the good you get , the bad you do the bad you get , i know some of you might read and say that what kind of crap is this .In today’s fast and furious world where people don’t have time for each other how can we believe that karma will answer them back but yes i believe in this fact because i have experienced it in my life.

If you do the same with those who have done bad to you or your closed one what will be the difference then ,if you want to prove wrong to someone prove them with your kindness this is what i believe.You can be blind but the one who has nurtured the entire world cannot be blind.

Guys I hope you will like this blog if you feel like i should make any changes .please let me know i would love to implement your ideas.
The Mystery of Breath in Meditation and Telepathy

“I am in my heart, I am cleansed of those thoughts, I am unconscious, and then the thought that comes to consciousness is knowledge in the form of water”

The Breath

Breath is related to thought, consciousness to the surface of the earth, the unconscious sea and the depths of the ocean to your subconscious.

“I am in my heart, I am cleansed of those thoughts, I am unconscious, and then the thought that comes to consciousness is knowledge in the form of water”

All the forms of life together take the form of a complete life; existence emerges from the basic laws and periods of nature. The cycle of life in nature is an example of complete attachment to the universe and to one another. That water from the oceans reaches the atmosphere in the form of vapor, and when it reaches the atmosphere. All the impure elements and minerals in it are left in the sea. The vapors turn into clouds that fly up to the top, because they are pure, they are fine. As soon as the clouds hit the cool clear air, the same water falls on the ground in the form of raindrops or snow. It rains, which enriches life, grows, and develops….

A DAY IN OUR LIFE COULD BE WAY MORE BEAUTIFUL: Manjari Jul 6·2 min read

For beautiful days and positive thoughts , you will have to start your day by doing what your heart says rather than what brain does.

Most of the time we tend to listen to our brain and tries to behave logically whereas sometimes dealing emotionally can change and give a better outcome, everywhere and every time even when your brain cant uphold you, your heart can…

Just erasing up your past , holding up pen in the present and writing your future is just a creative way to view your future way more interesting and in your perspective the best , because reality cant be told or written , it always keeps up a surprise, full of mystery and new lessons for us to upgrade or keep a better perspective of our lives …..

Just our attitude or our reaction to an matter can help us change the whole scenario. Acting aggressively towards a situation vs dealing it patiently can bring out two different outcomes , its always in your hands how to live in every moment of life ….

“THERE ARE TWO GREAT DAYS IN A PERSONS LIFE — THE DAY WHEN WE ARE BORN AND THE DAY WE DISCOVER WHY”… William Barclay

This beautiful quote includes simple lines but great message → Since the time when we are born till our death , every moment , every second is precious, if you can live in each and every thing only you can find out your purpose of being born in this world, just like skipping few ads which disturbs in middle of a video, don’t skip the Beautiful opportunities you got in life maybe they could have turned out the best, u never know….

So try to discover yourself in each word & actions you perform and try to see the real you…:)
All my life, I thought time travel wasn’t real and existed only in movies or fantasies.
By: Afrah S. Hasan
Tags: Life Lessons, Thoughts And Feelings

All my life, I thought time travel wasn’t real and existed only in movies or fantasies. Until, we moved into this new apartment of ours that rests opposite the sea.

Every morning, I’d witness the sky & the ocean meet at the far end, seagulls circumambulating the area, the waves crawling gently onto the shore, ebbing away a part of me, bit by bit. And every single day, it takes me back in time and reminds me of Mama. She sat next to the same window for hours, lost in her deepest thoughts. Now I understand, life is so unpredictable. Three years back, it was her and today it’s me. From hands so full that I couldn’t hold more in them, to being completely empty handed. It feels like all I ever had was just a dream & this, right here is the reality. Bitter reality. It’s hard to absorb and hold onto so many emotions and feelings inside your soul. The fear of loss, of being torn apart is the worst of all. Every second is a battle between your soul & your fears, causing you to shatter completely. But somehow, a divine force ends up concealing my heart all over again, giving me a little more strength to hang in there.

I’m not sure how long I’ll succeed in doing so, or how many more waves it’ll take for me to settle on my destined shore; but the faith that I’ll find my way through this pain & anguish, is what keeps me on my toes.
