EXECUTIVE INSIGHT
Q . TELL US ABOUT YOUR PROFESSIONAL JOURNEY AND WHAT LED YOU TO BECOME THE CEO OF FADATA ?

» I have been CEO at insurance solutions provider , Fadata , for 6 years . Prior to joining Fadata , I was Insurance Industry General Manager for Europe at DXC . I grew the business and became a Thought Leader in digital transformation for the insurance industry . In total , I have over 25 years of experience in the software and insurance industry . Despite my senior role in a tech company , I do not come from a technical background . I completed a master ’ s degree in finance and business economics . I was headhunted for Fadata and since accepting my role , I have restructured the company with central strategic people and continue to do so . I strongly believe that we will accelerate scaling up our growth pattern over the next 4-5 years and become a super-power thanks to our 30 years of experience in the insurance software industry . We understand the industry drivers and have engineered the foundations for next-gen insurance which will support our customers on their digital journey .

Q . HOW DO YOU SEE THE INSURTECH INDUSTRY EVOLVING OVER THE NEXT 5-10 YEARS ?

» It has become more difficult to attract investors to start-ups in insurtech . Small point solutions are at risk of not having sufficient financial capacity to invest in the technology to match the market requirements . We foresee many being bought by large insurance solution
