Ever wonder what it takes to change the course of a whole industry? We're honored to host Arun P. Iyer, the Founder and CEO of Alpha Direct InsurTech, who is doing just that in the African insurance landscape. Brace yourself for an inspiring journey from a small-town upbringing, to a young boy investing in stocks, to a CEO transforming the insurance industry in Botswana.

Revolutionizing the highly regulated insurance industry, Alpha Direct is challenging the status quo with their disruptive approaches. Arun shares the story of Alpha Direct's genesis, discussing their innovative solutions that address the root cause of low insurance penetration in the lower middle class of Botswana. From the game-changing 'insurance in a box' initiative to leveraging mobile money platforms, expect to be enlightened by the ways Alpha Direct is making waves in the industry.

But what lies ahead for the future of insurance in Africa? Arun casts a spotlight on Alpha Direct's plans and their strategy for maintaining their standing in the underwriting market, optimizing the claims process and enhancing customer experience. 
 
Tune in and join us in exploring the future of insurance in Africa from the city of Gaborone in Botswana.
