Inhouse Seminars

Company Specific Programs

In our customized in-house events, current research results, the industry experience and the management knowledge of the IVW-HSG are adapted to the specific questions of the client. In many cases, these executive education activities involve intensive collaboration with renowned colleagues from the University of St.Gallen and other universities in Switzerland and abroad.

Research for Executives and Board Members

The St.Gallen Insurance Insights offer senior leaders the opportunity to engage with cutting-edge research that is highly relevant to strategic decision-making. These compact, interactive 90-minute sessions can be conducted monthly with executive or leadership teams – ideally as a series of 4 to 5 modules. Companies select topics from the full range of IVW research, including artificial intelligence, behavioral insurance, and business model transformation. Based on this selection, we assemble a tailored team of professors who present key findings, outline strategic action options, and facilitate a forward-looking dialogue on the future of the insurance industry. These exclusive sessions are current, practical, inspiring and are already successfully used by several companies, also as proof of executive training compliance.
