’Digital transformation is at the top of the boardroom agenda,’ says chief executive
Cytora has expanded its global advisory board with the appointments of four insurance veterans.
In a statement released today (25 August 2023), the insurtech said it has snapped up Jeffrey Hayman, Bronek Masojada, Bill Bloom and John Bruno to provide strategic advice as the firm continues to grow.
Earlier this week (22 August 2023), chief executive Richard Hartley told Insurance Times that that the London-based firm had moved to a “global structure” and was deploying its services in a new country each month.
After snapping up four new members for its advisory board, Hartley said: ”Digital transformation is at the top of the boardroom agenda and it is a difficult area for insurance companies to navigate and achieve enduring success.
“We are pleased to bring together such a breadth of expertise to help lead the industry forward.”
