About the Summit

It isn't just about technology. It's about what we do with it, and the people who make it happen.

AI is evolving at breathtaking speed. Agentic AI is moving from concept to reality. Data is becoming one of our Market's most valuable assets. But are we genuinely transforming our Market, or simply making existing processes faster?

And how do we ensure our people, expertise and professional judgement remain at the heart of this journey? The Summit brings together the London Market's brightest minds, leading technology innovators and insurance professionals to explore the choices that will shape our industry to 2030.

If you're looking for a conference where you sit quietly watching technology presentations, this probably isn't it. Expert panels, live polling and collaborative roundtable challenges, because we want to hear from YOU.

Delegates at the LMF Technology & Innovation Summit

Three big conversations

One extraordinary period of change.

From Generative AI to Agentic AI

Are we ready for what's next?

What happens when intelligent technology moves beyond assisting people and starts undertaking complex tasks and workflows? We'll separate genuine opportunity from hype, and ask how we retain appropriate human oversight.

From Data to Decisions

Where will the real commercial value come from?

Could the next wave of innovation deliver better underwriting decisions, improved risk selection and better loss ratios? And is the London Market doing enough to connect its data, systems and people?

The Human Edge

Taking our people into the future

Technology alone doesn't transform organisations. People do. How will roles evolve, what skills will we need, and how do we keep human expertise a competitive advantage?

And then… it's your turn

This is where the Summit comes alive.

No passengers. No right or wrong answers. Just brilliant Market minds sharing ideas, experiences and fresh thinking.

The £1 Million AI Investment Challenge

⟷Challenge 2

The Connected Market Challenge

Fragmented data, legacy technology, manual processes. Work with fellow delegates to identify the barriers holding us back and propose practical changes that could make a genuine difference.

I've known Roger for over five years now, and not only is he a valued practitioner in the market, but also a friend. I have always enjoyed attending LMF events; they're well organised, full of insightful discussion, and a great space to connect with others who care deeply about the future of our industry.
