Swiss Re Institute Resilience Summit

Online Participation Case Studies

About the event

The Resilience Summit is the annual flagship event of the Swiss Re Institute, renowned for its thought leadership and research. The Summit is committed to sparking innovation and driving research collaborations, centered on fostering resilience. 

This year’s edition of the Resilience Summit will delve into Life & Health (L&H) topics, including examining the impact of physical activity on cancer and other critical illnesses through wearables and data analytics; exploring long-term mortality modelling; addressing the challenge of antimicrobial resistance, as well as showcasing technological applications and innovations in the health domain. 

We're also thrilled to announce the return of the Joint Risk Resilience Partnership between Swiss Re Institute and the AXA Research Fund. This unique partnership in the re/insurance industry allocates a total amount of EUR 1 000 000 over three years to top-tier research projects, tackling systemic risks. At the Summit, we will present two awarded projects from last year's First Call for Proposals: Building Resilience against Systemic Cyber Risk, as well as launch the Second Call. 

Be part of both the conversations and actions shaping the future of resilience.

Tune Insight: Privacy-Preserving Analytics and its Applications in Health R&D

Privacy-preserving analytics refers to the methods and techniques used to analyze confidential or private data while ensuring that the underlying data remains confidential and secure.  

In this talk, Juan Troncoso- Pastoriza, CEO, Tune Insight, will provide an introduction into privacy preserving methods to analyse (sensitive) data, and showcase this in a current use case with Swiss hospitals. 

From a general Life & Health insurance pricing perspective, Daniel Meier, Life & Health R&D Manager, Swiss Re, will then show how privacy preserving methods can support the development of fair/non-discriminatory pricing/underwriting models.
