Handbook

This course aims to inspire students to launch a start-up that disrupts the sector and solves some of the challenges customers face with insurance. By sharing practical examples that bring theoretical and complex concepts to life, this course will instil passion and enthusiasm in students. These practical examples are supported by direct experiences of insurance as customers, highlighting the important role insurance plays in their lives and the significant financial opportunity there is in disrupting the sector. Applied concepts underlying what InsurTechs are and the problems they are looking to solve in the sector will enhance the students’ understanding of InsurTech applications and will eventually enable a greater appreciation of the importance of insurance in customers’ lives, the key pain points customers face, the role technology has in enhancing the sector and outcomes for customers, start-ups, and end customers.
