Dani Katz, Co-founder & Director: Optalitix: Fix the roof while the sun is still shining (298)
Manage episode 412400078 series 3351714
Optalitix was borne out of the need for ‘optimization’ and ‘analytics’, as Co-founder and Director Dani Katz realized the biggest blocker for insurance companies was converting spreadsheets. Having now expanded beyond spreadsheets, Optalitix offers three software products to UK (re)insurers and MGAs.
Robin Merttens spoke to Dani about the spreadsheet polemic, innovation in the London Market and the permeability of finding solutions to difficult problems in both work and personal life.
Key talking points include:
- Growing out a company - solving challenges for insurers
- To spreadsheet or not to spreadsheet
- Reflecting on how far digitisation has come in the industry
- Suns and roofs - best moment to innovate
- Underwriting workbenches - where to start? - Find out in InsTech's recent report
- Joining Google Cloud Marketplace
- Founding a charity
