Liberty IT creates software, service and solutions for its parent company, Liberty Mutual Insurance, in support of its world-leading insurance products and services and this is the fourth year in a row that employees from the industry leader in digital innovation have taken part in the conference.
Speaking about the invite Matt said: “ It feels incredible that at Liberty IT, a Belfast and Dublin based company, we can make such a difference through our work. I’m excited for people to hear our accent on a worldwide stage and to let them see the possibilities that can be achieved when you have passion for what you do and work to enable others.”
Matt also added: “In my talk, I want people to know that Liberty IT is a serious player in the tech industry, using tech for good. Everything we do is based on how we can help the customer. I hope to help people understand the massive impact the insurance industry has on their lives. Our innovation helps make the process as painless as possible during what is usually a difficult time in people’s lives, when they need to make a claim - and that’s what makes it so important.”
