What Digital Insurance does

Digital Insurance is a sub-brand of CIV Group, an international research, consulting, and events firm headquartered in Shanghai, China and founded in 2014. The company operates a portfolio of insurance-industry conference events and community platforms across APAC and MENA. Its flagship offering is the Digital Insurance APAC conference — the 2025 edition was held June 25-26 at the Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre, drawing 160+ speakers/advisors, 1500+ attendees, 350+ CXOs, and participants from 50+ countries, with 60%+ insurers and 70%+ decision-makers. A parallel Digital Insurance MENA brand was launched in Dubai in 2024, with a 2026 edition already announced. Adjacent offerings include the Digital Insurance Awards program (e.g., Insurer Leader of 2025 APAC Region), structured matchmaking services ("We Want to Buy" for vendor matching, "We Want to Hire" for talent acquisition), and the InsurWorld Community — a network of 50,000+ insurance decision-makers organized across 500+ social groups, providing year-round engagement beyond the physical events.

Digital Insurance does not develop proprietary software, APIs, AI/ML systems, or platform technology. The technology layer is limited to a TicketTailor-powered registration checkout on the corporate website, standard digital marketing infrastructure, and social-group tooling for the InsurWorld Community. The product is fundamentally event-mediated and people-mediated — value is delivered through in-person convening, curated speaker content, and structured networking rather than through a software stack. The company holds no disclosed patents or trademarks, and there are no AI/ML hires, research outputs, or benchmarks in the source data.

The business model is a hybrid of ticket revenue and multi-tiered sponsorship. Conference registration is priced at USD $1,885 for a General Pass and USD $985 for a Startup Pass, with early-bird discounts (before March 31, 2025) and group discounts (3+ tickets at $1,257 each, 5+ at $1,131 each). Sponsorship packages span Knowledge Partner (Bain & Company), Platinum (Alibaba Cloud), Main Stage (FPT Software), Gold (HCLTech, Zurich Insurance), Silver (Microsoft), plus Bronze, Lunch Roundtable, Panel, Exhibition, Associate, Startup, and Talent tiers. Customer segments are primarily insurance carriers, reinsurers, insurtechs, and technology solution providers across APAC and MENA, with CXOs and senior decision-makers as the dominant buyer persona. The company is private, has no public listing, no disclosed funding rounds, and operates with a lean team of 17 employees.

Emerging players

• Coverager: Digital insurance media and community platform covering insurtech and insurance innovation. Comparable as a digital insurance community/media operator targeting the same insurtech audience, though without the large conference business.
• Plug and Play Insurtech: Global innovation platform and accelerator running insurtech-specific startup programs and showcases. Comparable as an insurtech-innovation connector and Digital Insurance Global Series Supporter, though focused on acceleration rather than conferences.

Broad incumbents

• Reuters Events (Insurance): Large-scale financial services and insurance event portfolio operated by Reuters. Comparable as a high-end B2B insurance conference operator, but with broader financial-services coverage and deeper resources than Digital Insurance.
• International Insurance Society (IIS): Global insurance industry association running industry events, awards, and leadership programs. Directly comparable as an insurance-events organizer and a Digital Insurance Global Series Supporter, though broader in scope.
• Insurance Journal: Long-standing US-headquartered insurance industry media and events platform. Comparable as an insurance media-and-events business targeting industry professionals, though primarily US-focused.
• Informa (Insurance Division): Global B2B events group operating multiple insurance and financial services conferences worldwide. Comparable as a large-scale insurance-events operator with much broader geographic and vertical coverage.

Direct peers

• Asia Insurance Review: Established APAC insurance industry publication and event organizer. Comparable as a regional insurance media-and-events operator targeting the same APAC insurance decision-maker audience.
• InsurTech Insights: Global insurtech conference series (London, Asia, USA editions) targeting the same insurer C-suite and insurtech community. Directly comparable in product format (large multi-track insurance conference) and audience.
• The Digital Insurer: A leading digital insurance media and community platform supporting Digital Insurance as a Global Series Supporter. Directly comparable as a digital-insurance-focused media and events operator serving the same insurer and insurtech audience.
• ITC (InsurTech Connect): Flagship US insurtech conference (held in Las Vegas) operated by Clarion Events. Directly comparable as a large-scale insurtech-focused B2B conference serving insurers, insurtechs and solution providers.
