Session 1: Are We Disruptable?
Someone said to us a few weeks ago, “You can’t Uber protection”. But surely, we must be disruptable because so many things are still done they way they used to be?
Then again, maybe things are done that way for good reasons. Lots of little things are changing but when an industry is disrupted it’s the big things that change. Will that ever happen to protection? Let’s talk about it.

Session 2: Brand new customers only? Introduction by Jo Miller
In this session we’ll be challenging our audience to think about the way that we work as an industry and whether it’s right to offer new product features or upgrades to new customers only. And what about taking features away?
We’ll consider the reasons we often work this way and the implications of doing so.
