WHY ATTEND

Cities across Canada are confronting escalating insurance costs, reduced coverage options, and heightened risks stemming from aging infrastructure, climate instability, and evolving legal liabilities. At the same time, the insurance industry is calling for improved data accuracy, enhanced risk mitigation measures, and greater transparency in asset performance and resilience.

Join us for a panel discussion that will explore how technology could help reduce insurable losses but also enhances performance and resilience outcomes. Experts from infrastructure owners, insurers, and engineering and construction firms will share their insights on how the industry can leverage digital solutions for improved insurance underwriting, claims assessment, and risk pricing. The discussion will focus on how innovative tools can minimize uncertainties, drive better performance outcomes, and enhance project viability.

Guests are invited to provide their perspectives on bridging the gap between infrastructure innovation and risk management, offering a valuable glimpse into the future of insurance in the digital age.
