Expanding Global Reach and Promoting Inclusion
Solera partnered with Insurtech Insights with two major objectives. The first was to expand globally across the insurtech sector by positioning its AI and sustainability solutions as essential tools for insurers to improve profitability while reducing environmental impact. The second was to champion diversity and inclusion through the development of the Women in Insurance (WIINS) initiative, which empowers women to progress into management and leadership positions within the insurance industry.
Solera is a global leader in vehicle lifecycle management, offering data-driven, software, and AI-powered solutions that cover every stage of the vehicle journey, from underwriting and claims to repair and recycling. The company’s technology enables businesses to increase efficiency, lower costs, and deliver on environmental commitments while driving innovation and inclusion in the process.
Overcoming Industry Challenges
To deliver on its goals, Solera faced three key challenges. The first was to establish global thought leadership across multiple continents. The second was to reach and engage the right audience of insurers, insurtechs, and decision-makers who could benefit from its AI and sustainability vision. The third challenge was to create meaningful spaces for women in the insurance sector to connect, grow, and advance into leadership roles.
Building Global Thought Leadership
Through its collaboration with Insurtech Insights, Solera positioned itself as a consistent thought leader in AI and sustainability across the Americas, Europe, and Asia-Pacific. Senior leaders from the company took part in high-profile panel discussions, sharing insights on how artificial intelligence and sustainability can enhance profitability while protecting the planet. These engagements helped reinforce Solera’s reputation as an innovative and forward-thinking partner for insurers navigating digital transformation.
Engaging with the Right Audience
Insurtech Insights provided Solera with direct access to a highly engaged and influential global audience. By connecting with senior executives from insurers, intermediaries, and technology providers, Solera was able to have strategic conversations that aligned with its business objectives. These interactions strengthened relationships, encouraged collaboration, and enhanced Solera’s visibility among key decision-makers within the insurance ecosystem.
Empowering Women in Insurance
Beyond technology, Solera’s collaboration with Insurtech Insights made a strong social impact through the Women in Insurance (WIINS) initiative. The initiative created seminars and platforms dedicated to supporting and inspiring women to step into leadership roles. It also encouraged both aspiring leaders and mentors to share experiences and insights that promote collective growth.
According to Sonia Javed, Vice President of Marketing at Solera, “Working with Insurtech Insights has enabled us to demonstrate Solera’s dual commitment – helping insurers embrace AI and sustainability to drive profitability, while also leading the charge in building a more inclusive industry. WIINS creates spaces for women to connect and thrive, and Insurtech Insights has been a valued partner in amplifying that mission. For us, empowering women in insurance is just as important as showcasing our technology, and this platform allowed us to do both.”
Achieving Results and Global Impact
Through this partnership, Solera achieved measurable success. The company strengthened its global reputation as a leader in AI and sustainability. It engaged directly with senior insurance executives across three continents. It also launched and delivered a successful programme through WIINS, which now has more than 300 women actively engaged through both physical events and digital programmes.
These results have allowed Solera to advance its dual mission of driving sustainable profitability for clients while shaping a more inclusive and diverse insurance industry.
A Partnership That Creates Real Change
The collaboration between Solera and Insurtech Insights demonstrates how two organisations can work together to create meaningful impact beyond commercial outcomes. Rory Pyke, Vice President of Global Partnerships at Insurtech Insights, stated, “At Insurtech Insights, we are truly proud of our partnership with Solera. Together, we have highlighted the power of AI and sustainability in reshaping the insurance industry while also championing diversity through the WIINS initiative. This partnership is a clear example of how innovation and leadership can thrive when organisations share a common purpose.”
Guidance for First-Time Sponsors
Reflecting on the success of the partnership, Solera shared valuable advice for new sponsors. The team recommends that companies make the most of the platform by having senior leaders on stage to share their vision and expertise. They also suggest investing in dedicated spaces for important social topics such as diversity and inclusion to create a lasting impact beyond commercial goals. Finally, Solera encourages future sponsors to collaborate closely with the Insurtech Insights team, who provide valuable support and guidance to help partners achieve meaningful outcomes from their participation.
Through its partnership with Insurtech Insights, Solera has not only expanded its global influence but also demonstrated how technology and inclusion can go hand in hand. Together, they have set a new standard for what leadership in the insurance industry can achieve when innovation, sustainability, and equality are given equal importance.
