InsurTech Ireland hosted a roundtable discussion for a delegation from the Government of Wales.  It was a great opportunity to talk about the Irish InsurTech ecosystem and to learn about what is happening in this space in Wales.  There has been a lively InsurTech scene in Wales for some time and we facilitated this discussion to help developing relationships and identify collaboration opportunities between the two communities, both for start-ups and for incumbents.
