Creating a future of insurtech with UK-Japan collaboration
Intralink is organising a pitch event on 15th September in partnership with one of Japan’s largest life insurance companies. Dai Ichi Life wants to find market-ready UK startups that have strong R&D and investment potential, with which Dai Ichi Life can develop cutting-edge insurance and finance solutions. Senior management will be flying from Japan to attend the event, including the Head of Dai Ichi Life’s Global Innovation Team.
