Well done all. If you are involved in InsurTech you should be familiar with CIRDAS (Centre for Insurance Data Analytics Studies) at SETU. They provide excellent education courses - many for free! - and they encourage consideration of Insurance as a career for graduates.

Congratulations to all at SETU (South Eastern Technical University), on their official launch today. We're proud to continue to partner with them on their InsurTech initiatives and look forward to collaborating further to develop and support the Irish InsurTech ecosystem. #SETU

Great guide to AI/ML in insurance by @InsTech_London & @MerttsR. The point that 90% of the work is in data prep is well made. In our experience this is the area that companies are least willing to spend time & money on - unfortunately it is the bedrock of any data strategy.

Our new report, A Practitioners Guide: Algorithmic underwriting in commercial and specialty insurance, is out now. Written by @MerttsR, the report simplifies the terminology and debunks some of the myths around algorithmic underwriting. More info below. instech.london/insight/practi…

@BrianCVC @Springcoil @destraynor This is why, along with the 10K+ costs & potentially being liable if relief was not granted when claimed, that as an Irish tech startup we immediately bypassed EIIS and recently got SEIS/EIS approval in the UK.

@Springcoil @destraynor So, on the (potentially many) losing investments in your portfolio, your "tax break" end up being just 7% of your cost. That is an incentive for real risk-taking, which is why EIIS uptake is dominated by low-risk quasi-asset-backed propositions.

A slightly odd article that greatly understates the problems in early-stage funding for Irish companies. It's great to see people like @destraynor backing Irish startups but, overall, early-stage funding is down materially in the past two years...
