DXC Connect Insurance Executive Forum | Singapore 2024
WHO SHOULD ATTEND AND WHY
Why should I attend DXC Connect Insurance Executive Forum?
Igniting our customer communities is one of DXC Technology’s top priorities. Many of our insurance customers have expressed the desire to meet face to face to listen, learn, share business challenges and successes, and work together to improve business outcomes.
During this event, you will:
- Learn about DXC’s insurance business strategy, along with our plans for DXC software and business process services
- Engage with the latest thinking from industry experts

We’ll discuss industry trends, share updates and gather input about how DXC can deliver greater value for our insurance customers as we shape our business strategy, along with our plans for DXC software and business process services. We want to listen and learn from you and work together with you to support your business success.
