In a dedicated segment, we delve into the significance of data quality in a world increasingly reliant on artificial intelligence (AI). We reflect on expert insights, highlighting challenges like data integration and the potential pitfalls of AI deployment in the insurance industry. Capping off, we celebrate Shepherd's fresh influx of capital, offering a glimpse into the future of commercial construction insurance through insurtech innovation.
