Business Wire
The Travelers Institute, the public policy division of The
Travelers Companies, Inc. (NYSE: TRV), will host a webinar on
Wednesday, May 19, titled “The Data-Driven Enterprise: Transforming
Business in the Digital Age.” The event will examine how
technology, data and analytics are transforming the way we live and
work as they present new opportunities across the insurance
industry and the broader business community.
“The technology and tools may have evolved, but one thing has
remained constant – data has fueled Travelers’ insurance products
and services for more than 165 years,” said Joan Woodward,
President of the Travelers Institute and Executive Vice President
of Public Policy at Travelers. “We are excited to discuss how
organizations can harness data to create digital capabilities and
experiences for their customers, business partners and
employees.”
The event, part of the Travelers Institute’s “Wednesdays with
Woodward” series, is being co-hosted by the MIT Sloan CIO
Symposium, Northeastern University’s Khoury College of Computer
Sciences and Georgia Tech’s College of Computing. It is free and
open to the public, and it will take place at 1 p.m. ET. Anyone
interested in registering can sign up here.
Woodward will host the discussion, which will feature:
- Mojgan Lefebvre, Executive Vice President and Chief Technology
& Operations Officer, Travelers.
- Dr. Tom Davenport, President’s Distinguished Professor,
Information Technology and Management, Babson College; Co-Founder,
International Institute for Analytics; Fellow, MIT Initiative for
the Digital Economy; Senior Advisor, Deloitte Analytics; and author
of “The AI Advantage,” among other works.
“The use of technology for businesses and consumers alike has
rapidly increased and has been dramatically amplified by the need
for many to pivot during the pandemic,” said Lefebvre. “Looking
ahead, the disruptions we’ve experienced – from the ways we shop to
the ways we work – could be the beginning of a new paradigm, where
technology will be the competitive differentiator for how all
businesses and ecosystems operate.”
“Data and analytics have played a pivotal role in helping
organizations of all sizes succeed despite ever-changing market
dynamics,” said Davenport. “Tools like predictive modeling and AI
are becoming more pervasive, easier to use and more powerful, and
they will continue to have a measurable impact on everything from
optimizing operations to enhancing product design.”
