We are excited to host a hackathon event on April 6th – 7th in New York and Phoenix designed to introduce more women to insurtech.
Called #ReWRITE — for Women, Risk, Insurance, Technology, Empowerment — the hackathon aims to provide women of different ages and backgrounds a unique opportunity to learn, network, and create next-gen insurtech solutions. Participants will be organized into small teams (2-6 women) to solve for a risk management challenge using emerging technologies such as blockchain, artificial intelligence, and internet of things. Each team will develop a demo and pitch that will be judged by a group of industry leaders. 
The winning team will receive $25,000 and be honored at the industry’s largest event, <A HREF="https://www.rims.org/rims2019/Pages/Home.aspx" TARGET="_blank" TITLE="RIMS 2019" DATA-MSYS-CLICKTRACK="0" REL="nofollow noopener noreferrer">RIMS 2019</A> in Boston (all expenses paid).  The runner up team will receive $15,000.

Why:
<UL>
<LI>
Businesses across the globe – from large corporations to small businesses to startups in the garage across various industries – are dealing with a wide range of traditional and emerging risks and opportunities….for example, cyber threats, extreme weather events, disruption from gig/sharing economy, autonomous vehicles, digital-native generation, on-demand customer mindset, intelligent automation, distributed trust, privacy & regulatory issues, and changing work force dynamics.
</LI>
<LI>
Insurance products and risk mitigation strategies must rapidly evolve to help businesses navigate this changing landscape. Transformation of the complex and manual processes in the insurance industry is critical!
</LI>
<LI>
Emerging technologies play a vital role in driving this change, and agile and diverse workforces will be in the forefront of it. As a case in point, the number of InsurTech companies and investments have quadrupled in the last two years. The future is here and we want you to help us #ReWRITE it!
