Background:
In 1688, Lloyd's of London, the most historically iconic insurance market, was born out of Edward Lloyd's Coffee House on Tower Street. From its inception, Lloyd's has played a unique role in driving innovation in insurance, addressing the evolving demands of society, commerce, and industry over the ensuing centuries. Today, Lloyd's underwrites approximately £53 billion ($67 billion) of insurance contracts from its iconic EC3 headquarters on Lime Street, in the heart of the City of London. Remarkably, it still maintains a coffee house where many deals are negotiated, underscoring the human interaction that sets Lloyd's apart.
Join us for a captivating journey through the history and future of creativity in the insurance industry, part of the prestigious Lord Mayor's Lecture Series.

As we delve into the rich narrative, we’ll highlight how the Lab is not only fostering new products but also bringing fresh talent from diverse fields such as academia, engineering, and various industries into the insurance sector. This infusion of new perspectives is vital for future-proofing the market and supporting the growth of future economies. Beyond the accelerator, the Lab offers a suite of services including Launchpad and Futureset, and it is now expanding its global footprint to support its ambitious vision.
The themes of 'connect' and 'prosper' are woven throughout our exploration, illustrating how Lloyd's continues to connect people and ideas to create a prosperous future for the insurance industry and beyond.
