  • Say you work in insurance at a party and honestly, it kills the conversation.

    Say you work in insurance at a party and honestly, it kills the conversation.
    Jun 4 2026
    Insurance is often misunderstood from the outside. Complex, technical, and rarely part of anyone’s “exciting conversation” at a party. In this episode, Eduardo D’Alma speaks with Tamara Kurz, Founder & Insurance Broker at Athena Protectoria, about what drives the industry and why transformation is so challenging. They explore the tension between sales, risk and technology, three perspectives that rarely align but all need to work together. The industry relies on balancing these forces. They also discuss why experience carries so much weight, how advisory is shifting towards clearer decision-making, and how AI fits into situations that require trust and human judgment. A conversation about complexity, balance and the people behind the system.

  • Digital Transformation in Practice: Rebuilding Art Insurance

    Digital Transformation in Practice: Rebuilding Art Insurance
    May 7 2026
    What does digital transformation really look like once execution begins? In this episode, Eduardo D’Alma speaks with Jean Gazançon, CEO of ARTE Generali, about how art insurance was fundamentally rebuilt from the ground up. Jean shares how a highly specialised line of business, dealing with unique risks, subjective value and demanding clients can be transformed without losing craftsmanship or judgment. The conversation explores what had to change, what needed to remain stable, and why technology only creates value when it is designed to support expertise rather than replace it. They discuss layered technology architectures, working under real economic and time constraints, the discipline of saying no to risks, and how AI can act as an assistant to specialists rather than a competing force. An honest conversation about transformation beyond buzzwords and what it takes to rebuild an insurance business in practice.

  • Rowing Across Limits: Risk, Resilience & Insurance at the Edge of the World

    Rowing Across Limits: Risk, Resilience & Insurance at the Edge of the World
    Apr 9 2026
    Risk becomes tangible when there is no safety net. In this episode, Eduardo D’Alma speaks with Julen Sánchez, who crossed the Atlantic Ocean alone and by human power only. 9,200 kilometres over 131 days at sea. Beyond the physical challenge, the conversation explores what it means to prepare for uncertainty when outcomes cannot be predicted or guaranteed. They discuss preparation, discipline and mental resilience, how decisions are made when control is limited, and what extreme environments reveal about responsibility, endurance and focus on process rather than outcome. A conversation about living with uncertainty and what that experience can teach us far beyond the context of adventure.
