DXC Technology is inviting insurtech start-ups to enter its Invitational competition, involving a series of online workshops and a pitch contest.

“We’re actively exploring innovative solutions with insurtechs to enhance customer experience, drive operational efficiency and strengthen compliance,” the IT services group’s local MD Michael Neary said.

DXC has partnered with Insurtech Australia and the University of Technology Sydney to run the contest for late-stage start-ups and scale-ups. The program is now in its seventh year.

Winners, to be announced on November 27, will work with DXC globally to deploy their products, with access to DXC’s customers.  

“Previous winners have gained real value from working with DXC – expanding their customer reach and entering new markets,” Insurtech Australia CEO Simone Dossetor said.

Start-ups in Australia and New Zealand can apply here.
