Mobility conference puts collaboration centre stage

Direct access to specialist expertise and greater opportunities for industry collaboration will be central to ILC’s Mobility in Insurance Conference 2026, as the event introduces new interactive formats alongside a senior speaker programme.

Taking place at the British Motor Museum, Gaydon, on 15 October, the conference – held in association with The CHO – will bring together insurers, mobility providers, technology businesses and supply chain partners to examine the changing relationship between mobility, insurance and motor claims.

Industry backing includes Platinum Sponsor Verisk, Gold Sponsors Northgate Insurance Services and United Rental Group, and Silver Sponsors NWVA and Trak Global.

A broad range of perspectives will be represented by the confirmed speaker line-up:

• Peter Allchorne, Partner – Head of Strategic Advisory, DAC Beachcroft

The agenda will address electric vehicles, embedded insurance, GTA2, claims economics, data, the role of the broker and emerging mobility trends.

However, delegates will also have opportunities to move beyond the traditional conference format with a highly interactive exhibition, specialist showcase sessions and vehicle displays.

New for 2026, the inaugural MIB Claims Surgery will provide confidential one-to-one appointments with senior MIB specialists covering complex and major loss claims, technical queries, MIB processes, emerging mobility challenges and future claims trends.

The AutoRaise World Café will provide a further interactive element, enabling delegates to exchange experiences and contribute ideas around the future talent and skills requirements of the industry.

Combined, the event will create multiple opportunities to hear from industry leaders, access specialist knowledge and participate directly in discussions about the future of mobility and motor claims.
