On today’s episode of FNO: InsureTech, we are joined by Ted Stuckey, the Managing Director at QBE Ventures. In this role, Ted looks to invest in technology solutions that have the potential to transform QBE and the international markets in which they operate.

Tune in to this episode to hear Ted’s insights on the insuretech space, specifically what makes a fruitful insuretech-corporation collaboration.
