In this episode, Dror Katzav, co-founder and CEO of Atidot, and I talk about Life insurance, LTV, predictive analytics, why Life insurance companies need to adopt a holistic approach, the Talpiot program, and Atidot.

The [insurance] company's challenge is that if I bump the price I'm just going to stay with bad risk and if I don't bump the price I'm stuck with bad pricing so i need to somehow figure out a way to marry premium, profit, mortality and some other risks all together in one equation

In this episode, I had a very interesting conversation about Cybersecurity with Avi Bartov, the CEO and co-founder of GamaSec. GamaSec provides pre-breach services helping commercial lines insurance brokers and carriers to manage risk and provide cybersecurity education to their policyholders.

…they (small, medium businesses) do not have the same budget, they do not have an IT security department, they do not have the IT people in order to solve those security issues. Therefore they are more open to be a target to the hackers.

Ben Munro - Briza

In this episode, I had the pleasure of hosting Ben Munro. Ben and I talked about delivering commercial insurance via API, about his company--Briza, building a company that service insurance agents and insurance carriers, founding and funding a startup, CX vs. KPI, and Lord of the Rings.

In 2015 or 2016, you didn't have APIs to work with. There was no way to connect back into insurers. For the most part. What you ended up having was a very user-friendly slick website, a very very nice kind of online experience, but it was really a call center that was trying to fulfill those risk placements.
