The 2024 ABI Conference, organised by the Association of British Insurers, was held on 27 February. This annual event is a chance for insurers to network and discuss the challenges and opportunities facing the insurance industry.
Darwin was at the conference to introduce our new autonomous shuttle, the second vehicle to be added to the existing Darwin Autonomous Shuttle service, in collaboration with Aviva, the European Space Agency, the UK Space Agency and the University of Salford. We’re sharing data from the service with Aviva to help them develop insurance products for self-driving vehicles.
