    Underwriting and insurtech increasingly intersect as the industry embraces technology in this space. Insurtech can help underwriters better assess risk, do their job more efficiently and help their companies be more profitable. Additionally, underwriters insight helps the IT professionals determine how this technology is integrated into operations.  

    It is for this reason we offer a NEW overnight education and networking event.  The Fall IT & Underwriting Summit will kick off with an evening reception and then move on to a day full of education for BOTH the Insurtech and Underwriting sides of our industry.  Expect combined general sessions, as well as break-out sessions dedicated to each topic. Attendees of our previous annual IT Seminars and annual Underwriting Seminars will find this to be valuable and the perfect improvement on our previous events!

    Anytime Risk Management
    Jeff Hendershot, Loss Control Engineering Director, Pennsylvania Lumbermans

    Loss/Risk Control surveys play a critical role in helping insurance underwriters evaluate and price risk. Many commercial insurance companies were hindered in performing physical surveys at customers sites during the pandemic. Self-survey tools bring a solution to this problem. This presentation will look at how self-surveys can work, results from tested processes, and where the future of these programs is headed.
