As the closing keynote speaker for this year's Professional Insurance Marketing Association (PIMA) Conference global futurist Jack Uldrich aims to help PIMA members understand how technological trends, business forces and social media are merging to create fresh and innovative opportunities in the affinity market.

Uldrich's keynote for the event, "The Big AHA: How to Future-Proof Your Business Against Tomorrow's Trends will address the cutting edge trends in technology, including advances in mobile payments, the Internet of Things, "Big Data," peer-to-peer lending, wearable technology, artificial intelligence and collaborative consumption.

With his keen ability to hone in on relevant trends, Uldrich is tremendously adept at custom designing his message to each individual audience. He also offers powerful, constructive guidance for leveraging rapid technology-driven change into a competitive advantage. His captivating style blended with humor and anecdotes, along with timely and provocative insights (e.g., "Will Google Insure the Future?") motivates audiences like PIMA to embrace the challenges and opportunities that lay ahead and help them achieve their mission of thriving in a dynamic market place.

"The pace and scale of tomorrows change begs the obvious question: How does a business leader prepare for a constantly changing future? The answer can be found in a simple acronym: AHA. It stands for: Awareness, Humility and Action." Says Uldrich and this, in addition to covering the top technological trends, will be the jumping off point for his keynote.
