1st mutual insurance
conference

Mutuals in the age of digitalization: Challenges, opportunities and the role of research

ABOUT

The first MIC conference took place in 2018 in Tampere, Finland with the keynote speaker being Shaun Tarbuck, CEO of International Cooperative and Mutual Insurance Federation (ICMIF). It included a panel discussion which reflected on the overall theme ‘Mutuals in the age of digitalization: Challenges, opportunities and the role of research‘. The first MIC was sold-out while the exciting discussions evidently showed that there was a place and need for an event bringing scholars and practitioners together. This led to a decisions to continue organizing the event in 2019 in Zagreb.
