P&C is changing—products, consumer expectations, technologies, and entire business models. To win, carriers need to be faster, nimbler, better connected and better informed than ever which means running their businesses on modern, open, and highly configurable platforms.  

During this Virtual Think Tank, Frost & Sullivan's Director of Consulting, Debbie Wong, will moderate a discussion to better understand how P&C insurers are embracing openly-architected core platforms designed for change and connectivity. The contents of your collective conversation will feed an article Frost & Sullivan is writing titled "The Power of Open Platforms and Connected Ecosystems in Today's P&C Insurance Industry."  Based on past experiences, we expect you to leave with a ton of great takeaways and new connections with industry peers. (See below for feedback from past research think tanks).

Discussion Questions:

1. What (if any) new, changing, or shifting technology needs are you experiencing as a result of the fast changing P&C market?
2. What benefits do you see in the use of open platform architecture?
3. What experiences have you had with a dynamic ecosystem model? Is it something you have considered or undertaken?
4. In terms of internal data-sharing, what models have you seen or aware of that seem effective?
5. What factors would you consider in adopting a SaaS model for your organization?
