Session 1 Powering savings and growth: insurers as investors
This session brings together leading investment experts from Europe, the United States, Asia, and Africa to examine the critical role of insurers as institutional investors. It will explore how the industry makes investment decisions, allocates capital, and drives long-term value creation while balancing risk, return, and sustainability objectives.
The discussion will focus on insurers’ capacity to mobilise capital for the net-zero transition, sustainable economic growth, and innovation. Panelists will address key investment-related questions: Where can the industry expand its impact? What barriers - regulatory or structural - hinder its ability to deploy capital effectively?
The session will feature senior voices from major global investment institutions and the world’s largest insurers.

Session 2 A rising storm: natcat schemes without borders
Featuring insights from insurers, policymakers, and thought leaders, this session will explore how the insurance industry is evolving to address natural catastrophes (natcat) risks in an era of escalating climate-driven disasters.
With the impacts of climate change impossible to ignore, the conversation is shifting - how can natcat protection go beyond just national and regional schemes? What is working in different parts of the world?
This panel will explore global best practices, innovative risk-sharing models, and new approaches to insurability, looking at how we can build a more resilient, scalable system for the future.

Customer expectations have always been in flux, driven by societal, technological, and economic changes. In today’s fast-paced world, the insurance industry is not just keeping pace but proactively reimagining its role to deliver greater value for all policyholders.
This session brings together insights from industry experts, consumers, and behavioural economists to explore how the sector is evolving to meet consumers’ ever shifting needs.
The discussion will highlight how insurers are leveraging data and digital technologies to design innovative solutions, from proactive risk prevention to personalised services for customers, even for those who rarely file claims.

Practical Information
The venue: Autoworld
An impressive historic building in Brussels, linked with automotive history, is home to Autoworld, the Belgian National Automobile Museum. Situated in the ‘Parc du Cinquantenaire’, the neo-classical building commemorated the 50th anniversary of the Kingdom of Belgium in 1880. From 1902 to 1936 it hosted motorcar and motorbike exhibitions. Since 1986 it has treasured the major part of Ghislain Mahy’s renowned classic car collection.
Over 300 vehicles, ranging from cars and trucks to motorcycles, are on permanent display. From the earliest models of the distant past to contemporary cars that prefigure the automobile of tomorrow, visitors are guided through the motorcar’s history dating as far back as 1896.
Various cars representing the most exciting years of the automobile history since 1960 can be approached and admired from close by, thanks to a brilliantly designed scenography.
Special sections focus on sports and competition, cars owned by the Belgian Royal Family, micro and bubble cars, and car design. The Belgium at Autoworld section is dedicated to the roots and history of the Belgian car industry.
Autoworld is a museum on the move, with temporary exhibitions taking on various automotive themes organised throughout the year.
