An Industry Ripe for Disruption: Insurtech & Insurance Careers Night: Panel Q&A + Networking @ UTS Startups (Wed 28th Oct 5-8pm)

An evening for students and anyone curious about a career in insurtech & insurance, to meet real people working within the industry — panel talks and networking, and a shot at winning an exclusive 1-on-1 one hour career consultation with an extremely well regarded veteran of the industry. Forget everything you think you know about a career in insurtech & insurance. Insurance is one of the largest, oldest industries in the country — and one of the least innovated. Legacy systems, manual processes, decades-old ways of working: for most people that sounds boring. For the right kind of curious, ambitious person, it's an open runway — and right now, it's hiring. The CC:OVER is bringing together insurance professionals and insurtech founders from across the industry for one relaxed evening of real talk about what these jobs actually look like, where the biggest gaps for innovation are, and where the future of the industry is heading. 🕔 How the evening runs 5:00 – 5:30pm — Doors open. Settle in, meet a few faces before things kick off. 5:30 – 7:00pm — Panel sessions and Q&A. Hear directly from people working across the industry — what they do, how they got there, where the industry is ripe for disruption, and what talent will look like in the space. Nothing is off limits, open to the floor! 7:00 – 8:00pm — Networking. Swap the panel format for real conversations — ask the questions you didn't want to ask in front of a room. 🎤 Meet the panel (lineup TBC) Two insurtech founders are already locked in: Calum Thornhill — Founder, bbnet.ai.
