The programme itself, created by GDS International's very own advisory board, ensures that this year's summit is likely to really impact the insurance arena and set the standard for other events in the Miami region.
The summit is an invitation-only event, ensuring that only the most established and well-respected executives will be in attendance.

Sanjay Pandey, SVP & CIO National Life Group, previous and returning attendee at GDS International's NG Insurance US Summit, said: "It was a very amicable and friendly environment. The peer sessions were very good; I think there was a very good dialogue and very informative networking sessions. Overall, it was a quality experience."
Ksenia Gorbacheva, Lead Director NG Insurance Group, GDS International, said, "In the current environment it's very difficult for insurers to adapt to new technologies such as getting rid of a paper based system. Additionally, with constant M&As, it is challenging to operate on multiple legacy systems and as a result it is essential to stay on top of technological developments."
