SOA Predictive Analytics Seminar – Seoul, Republic of Korea

The predictive analytics market growth in the Asia Pacific (APAC) region has been rapidly gaining momentum and is expected to expand exponentially in the coming years. Rising awareness and use of predictive analytics can be attributed to the continuous emphasis of companies enhancing customer service and productivity to edge out competition and drive revenue growth. To get actuaries up to speed with this trend, we are conducting the SOA Predictive Analytics Seminar in South Korea on 30 August, 2019.

The SOA is very honored to receive support from the Institute of Actuaries of Korea (IAK) for this Seminar.

This seminar intends to provide a learning and networking platform in South Korea and the Asia-Pacific for members and non-members to share their experiences in predictive analytics topics.  It will offer:

• Professional sessions to share best practices and help attendees better prepare for future developments

• Opportunity to meet with industry practitioners
• Sponsorship opportunities
