USE CASE:

Insurtech companies and event presence

What follows is the honest set of ways to get event presence on insurtech companies, including the ones that are not ours. Mamba Labs builds the Apify actors named here, so Event Presence Index is something you run yourself against your own list of insurtech companies.

Where this starts

Insurtech companies and event presence: one at a time is fine, and a list of them is not. Insurtech companies are brokers, carriers or software pretending to be one of the two, and the label rarely says which, and event presence has to work around it. Know this about insurtech companies before any event presence: a broker and a carrier look identical from the homepage and buy nothing alike. If you would rather try it than read about it, Event Presence Index does event presence for insurtech companies today.

The method

  1. Start with one of insurtech companies you already know, so a wrong event presence answer is obvious rather than plausible.
  2. Run Event Presence Index across your list of insurtech companies, which carries 1 ready made setup for event presence.
  3. Read ten rows of event presence on insurtech companies by hand before you trust the rest of the list.

Traditional Search Tools

  • The regulator's firm register, for insurtech companies. Free, and it separates the broker from the carrier in one lookup.
  • Ask your customers. Five calls answers this better than any dataset, and the answers include the events that are not worth attending, which no sponsor list tells you.
  • Event platforms and directories. 10Times and similar list events and exhibitors. Coverage is broad, depth on who actually sponsored is thin.
  • LinkedIn during the event week. People post from conferences. Watching the hashtag for a week tells you who was there and who cared enough to say so.
  • Read the sponsor pages. Pick the ten events in your category, open the sponsor list for the last two years, and see who repeats. An afternoon, and the pattern is usually obvious by the third event.

Preconfigured tasks

A task is one of these actors with the inputs already filled in for a specific version of this job. Open one, swap in your own list, and run it without setting anything up from scratch.
