DALLAS — The sixth annual Entrepreneurial Insurance Symposium drew nearly 400 people to Dallas last week.
The two-day event, launched in 2007 by Dallas-based electronic insurance exchange MarketScout to profile innovation in the insurance industry, featured presentations by 14 industry leaders.
It also included the “shark tank,” where members of the Entrepreneurial Insurance Alliance chose six finalists from more than 100 applicants to participate in the event.
Presenters had 10 minutes to demonstrate their innovations in the fields of insurance underwriting, distribution or technology before facing an additional five minutes of questioning from a panel of expert judges. Winners had not been announced by press time.
Next year's symposium is slated to take place Sept. 10-11, 2013.
