Anyone shaping how insurers turn information into insight: data and AI, technology and architecture, underwriting, claims, operations, information management, and governance and compliance teams.
STUDIO BROADCAST
From unstructured data to AI-ready insight
Bridging legacy complexity and building the foundations for the next generation of AI
12 November | 11am GMT
The information needed to make better decisions is often already there, buried across submissions, policy documents, claims files, correspondence, and years of archived records. Yet much of it remains difficult to access and use, sitting across legacy platforms, disconnected workflows and systems designed for storage rather than reuse. As organisations prepare for the next generation of AI, the opportunity is to turn this untapped information into a more accessible and valuable foundation for the business.
This webinar will explore what it takes to bridge the gap and build that foundation, looking at the practical opportunities across underwriting, claims and wider operations, and the data, integration, governance and workflow considerations needed to turn that information into scalable business value.
- How legacy platforms, eCMS environments and fragmented workflows can be brought together to create a more accessible and usable information foundation for AI innovation
- What is needed to move beyond structured data to unlock the intelligence embedded in documents, correspondence and other unstructured sources
- Where greater access to unstructured information can create the greatest AI opportunities across underwriting, claims and wider business operations
- How well-governed, traceable and accessible information environments can build the foundations needed for successful AI adoption
- The information hiding in plain sight: what valuable insight is sitting across documents, correspondence, archives and other unstructured sources, and what becomes possible when it can be accessed and understood more easily?
- Bridging legacy complexity: how can established platforms support the next generation of AI capabilities without requiring wholesale replacement?
- The role of eCMS and the modern archive: how can the right environment make previously inaccessible information easier to find, connect and use?
- From archive to action: where can making previously difficult-to-use information accessible and actionable create value across underwriting, claims and other business-critical processes?
- Getting ready for scale: what needs to be addressed across information, integration, governance and workflows before AI can move beyond experimentation and into everyday operations?
- From potential to proven value: where are the clearest opportunities to demonstrate measurable benefits, from faster access to information and greater efficiency through to better decisions and outcomes?
