(Boston) – Datos Insights (formerly Aite-Novarica Group) is pleased to announce the winners of the 2023 Insurance Technology Impact Awards. Now in its twelfth year, the Insurance Technology Impact Awards program recognizes insurer IT initiatives and projects that have generated real business impact for their organizations. More than 60 technology projects were submitted for consideration in the 2023 program, and dozens of insurer technology leaders voted for the winners.
Submitted projects are summarized in single-page case studies which are reviewed and voted on by members of the Datos Insights Insurer CIO Council, a moderated knowledge-sharing community of nearly 400 insurer CIOs or CIO equivalents. The Awards are distinct in being purely peer-juried; no vendors, consultants, journalists, or members of the Datos Insights participate in the voting.

The 2023 winners should feel justifiably proud to be recognized by their peers for their achievements.”
