The 52nd AIO conference presented the perfect balance of industry discussions on topical issues, alongside networking throughout the event. It celebrated the rich heritage and vibrant culture of Egypt, featuring local entertainment, food, and historical sites.
With more than 2000 attendees, representing 57+ countries - the AIO conference is a standout event on the African Insurance calendar.

The conference was opened with a welcome message from the LOC president, followed by an address from the outgoing AIO president who championed the conference sessions and dialogue as mechanisms to help drive continued development & collaboration across the insurance industry.

A key discussion point for this year’s event focused on how to create economic growth that is inclusive, and sustainable.

Mr Yared Mola encouraged delegates to engage actively, and contribute ideas to help unlock progress through insurance, and thanked all of the sponsors for helping to make this event possible.

Dignitaries from Egypt gave the opening keynote and welcomed the AIO conference to Egypt, supporting the dialogue of insurance as an economic enabler.

The AIO presidency was officially handed over to Mr Alaa El-Zoheiry, by the outgoing president, Mr Yared Mola.

The first day closed out with a dinner focused on celebrating a stronger and more resilient Africa, highlighting achievements from insurance professionals across various award categories.

The second day provided equal opportunity to engage with peers and industry dialogue. Conference delegates had an open evening to explore Cairo, with the last official day of the conference featuring a gala dinner hosted at the prestigious Cairo Citadel. An evening filled with a unique atmosphere, steeped in local history.

Congratulations to the AIO for organising a memorable event. The COVER team wish Mr Alaa El-Zoheiry all the best on his AIO presidency and look forward to seeing the growth trajectory of the organization through his leadership.

Digital transformation was only the beginning.

The next competitive advantage lies in how effectively insurers and intermediaries connect, collaborate, and participate in the insurance ecosystem.

Graham Harvey, CEO & Co-Founder of Cardinal Group, joins Tony van Niekerk to unpack how technology removes friction, unlocks productivity, and moves the industry from digitisation to true optimisation.

A practical conversation, not technology for its own sake.

In his session at the Innovators Network, Graham Gordon, Product & Strategy Director at Sapiens, challenged the assumption that AI initiatives automatically create value. Instead, he emphasised the need for alignment between strategy, data, and implementation. Without this, organisations risk investing heavily in technology without seeing meaningful returns.

At the same time, he outlined the scale of the opportunity. AI has the potential to transform the entire insurance value chain, from underwriting and claims to fraud detection and customer engagement. More importantly, it enables a shift from reactive to proactive models, where insurers move beyond paying claims to preventing losses.

Yet achieving this requires more than technology. It demands organisational readiness, strong data foundations, and a willingness to rethink existing operating models. In short, AI will not deliver value by default. It must be engineered into the business.
