In the last episode of Insurance Tomorrow for 2024, we look back at some of the most significant issues and global trends that we’ve discussed over the past year. We explore how these topics might affect the insurance industry now and in the future.

In Steph's final episode as host, we covered everything from autonomous vehicles, the motivation parallels between sport and business, to the risks of lithium-ion batteries for businesses.

 

Lithium-on batteries have become increasingly common in business and our everyday lives. Although fires caused by these batteries are relatively rare, they can be catastrophic.

In this episode, we discover what lithium-ion batteries are, what the risks are, and what happens when lithium-ion batteries catch fire.

With the rapid development of eCommerce in the last five years, our latest episode looks at how businesses can keep up with new technology, supply chain disruption, and increasingly demanding customers and how insurers can help businesses stay secure as they evolve.

In another special episode of Insurance Tomorrow, we look at how preparation and how marginal gains can lead to success, inside and outside of the sporting arena. As the proud partners of Team GB and ParalympicsGB, we thoroughly enjoyed talking about the relationship between performance and results.

In this special episode of Insurance Tomorrow, we look at the parallels between sport and business life, and how resilience, marginal gains and thorough preparation can benefit a range of situations, from the trackside to the workplace.

What is it going to take to bring the insurance industry into a new era of trust, climate risk and changing customer behaviours? How can the industry make its products better, and provide cover the that people and companies need?

The BIBA conference has a well-earned reputation for showcasing the most influential and inspiring trends for our industry. In our BIBA special episode we discuss the future of customer experience, how brokers drive the insurance sector, and how things could change over the next decade.

Autonomous vehicles or self-driving cars are supposed to be just round the corner, but we’ve been saying this ever since the first episode of Insurance Tomorrow.

They may seem like something from science fiction, but a few specialised examples could hit the roads in a few years time. The benefits and implication the technology could bring are huge, but so are the challenges for the insurance industry...

In the last episode of Insurance Tomorrow for 2023, we look back at some of the most significant issues we have discussed over the past year, as we examine some of the most important global trends in the months and years to come and explore how they might affect the insurance industry.

Our host - Steph McGovern - discussed the cost of living crisis, the skills shortage, artificial intelligence, and even recorded an episode live at the BIBA conference.

In this episode we look at how the insurance industry can drive the transition to net zero, and the importance of ESG for business.

While the transition to net zero can appear like a huge long term task for firms just starting on their net zero journey, our host - Steph McGovern asks what practical things can insurance companies do now to have a positive impact on climate change.

Over the past few months, we've heard a lot about AI, or Artificial Intelligence. In this podcast we explain how AI can analyse data from various sources such as customer information, accident reports, and policy details.

Discussing how AI can help the insurance industry by assessing the validity of claims, calculate payouts, and even detect fraudulent activities.

In this episode we talk about how to ensure your business remains resilient in challenging times.

Over two thirds of SMEs in the UK are concerned about the ongoing cost-of-living crisis, inflation and energy prices. The economic outlook is uncertain, with increasing inflation, and a downturn in consumer confidence. So what should businesses do?
