Data and Analytics

Hello , welcome back

The Vitality Fellowship

Each month, we tailor our content to a specific theme, from wellness topics to global trends and health awareness days, to help you craft memorable and exciting campaigns for your members throughout the year.

Dynamically defining the future

As actuaries and analysts, we work in an ever-evolving environment where we are given the responsibility to solve complex issues. To remain relevant — and highly valued — we need to keep up-to-date with data science trends, actuarial techniques, regulatory changes and, particularly given our focus on wellness and behavior change at Vitality, InsurTech advancements.

This is where the Actuarial Conference comes in

This annual conference, created for analytically-minded individuals across the Discovery Group and Vitality Network, was established 15 years ago to showcase innovation, analytical techniques, and the ability to solve real-world and business problems. As part of this exclusive conference, we invite participants to present papers on solutions to challenges in their businesses.

In addition to the valuable networking and exposure opportunities, what would a Vitality conference be without incentives inspired by behavioural economics? Prizes on offer for the winning teams include VIP international and regionaltrips and unparalleled experiences. The 2023 winners, for example, include prize.
