AI Insurance Conference 2025 in Cologne - AI in the world of insurance

On October 9 and 10, 2025, the AI Insurance Conference 2025 took place at the Maritim Hotel Cologne - a top-class platform where everything revolved around AI and GenAI in the insurance industry.

The conference was entirely geared towards practical transfer: The focus was on real AI projects, tangible use cases and strategic outlooks - from efficient use and scaling issues to regulatory challenges and IT architectures.

More than 30 top speakers from the insurance industry, technology and supervision presented forward-looking topics such as AI in claims management, GenAI in sales & service, IT landscapes in transition and AI as an integral part of corporate strategy. Among them was our colleague Chris Ehrling!

In his presentation, he first explained how the simplicity of image fraud has changed between 2015 and today - back then it was still complex, today it is much more accessible thanks to manipulative tools. He then took the audience on a journey of origins: From the university research work on AI image forensics in Germany to the concrete application in the insurance environment. It was particularly exciting to see how different models are used together today to overcome the greatest possible hurdles for fraudsters.

The response was consistently positive: many conversations, lively discussions and valuable suggestions confirmed that our approach is meeting with interest and relevance.

We would like to thank the organizers of BusinessForum21 for the excellent implementation and all participants for the inspiring exchange. In times when AI is no longer a dream of the future, but part of the daily insurance business, we look forward to sharing our findings and working together on solutions.
