LMF Technology & Innovation Summit

We warmly welcome all LMF Members and insurance practitioners from across the London Market to the annual LMF Technology & Innovation Summit. This HALF DAY "FREE" TO ACCESS yearly "workshop styled" gathering has become a favourite in the LMF calendar. It's a opportunity to learn, network and collaborate alongside your Market peers, discussing all those technology and innovation opportunities and challenges that face us daily.

The event will start with a Networking Luncheon, comprise a 3 hour Summit event and then conclude with the LMF Market Christmas Drinks Party.

We live in some of the fastest changing times ever seen, when it comes to technology and innovation. Keeping in touch with one's own peers, as well as hearing from domain experts from a variety of specialisms has incredible value. During this half day event we'll cover:

• 2026 CIO Priorities - Our panel of distinguished Market technology leaders will discuss and debate their 2026 priorities, what's on their agendas, from the changes following the announcement about the new Blueprint Two timeline, to the ongoing challenges with data and the outlook for Ai usage in underwriting and broking
• Is the "London Market Data Debt" holding us back? With the help of Data Leaders from inside the London Market, as well as expert commentators from other firms, we'll look at our collective data challenges faced by Market firms and how we are overcoming them.
• Generative Ai - The Management and Market dilemma. Whilst Gen Ai presents enormous opportunities for the London Insurance Market, from risk management to underwriting analysis and from operational efficiency to fast track claims evaluation, there are real challenges from a lack of confidence amongst the practitioner community and the Financial Regulator to concerns over security and the underlying data sources.
• The Delegated Authority Market - A period of technological revolution underway. The DA Market is undergoing considerable growth, with new MGA's popping up and capacity available for continued expansion. However, the underlying technological infrastructure, supporting the risk lifecycle has been in need of investment. We are now seeing much change but what do our Practitioners want and need, and how are our Market suppliers stepping up to the challenge.
• The talent and skills gaps in a fast changing London Market. Change is all around us and there's a lot of technological debt in need of refresh, repair and replace, coupled with new technologies, such as Generative Ai. Many technology and operations leaders in the Market feel that we face a genuine talent challenge - in terms of not only attracting talent, but the right type of talent. We'll openly discuss the talent crisis and how we might be able to change the current direction of travel.
