London, UK, 27 January 2022 – EDII, an innovation, education, and development company for regulated markets, has announced the appointment of Alex Wilson as Coaching Director to support delegates on EDII’s Digital Minds programme.
Alex will be a pivotal member of the EDII Coaching Director team and brings with him extensive innovation and delivery knowledge that will enhance delegates’ experience throughout the 12-month programme. EDII’s Coaching Directors are hand-selected based on their in-depth expertise and understanding of how to succeed in the dynamic insurance sector.
Alex has worked in various innovation and entrepreneurial roles, and currently serves as Senior Manager, Business Development and Strategy, at Ki Insurance (Ki) since its launch in 2020. Prior to joining Ki, he worked at Brit Insurance (Brit) as Innovation Manager and Operations Lead, where he was part of the team that incubated Ki at Brit.
“It’s an honour to be welcomed to EDII as a Coaching Director,” said Alex. “I plan to use my knowledge of digital start-ups and technologies to guide delegates through the tech-focused initiatives that are currently re-shaping growth in the insurance world.
“The industry is undergoing a huge transition to digital modernisation, and the next generation will play a crucial role in determining its success. I am looking forward to working with EDII and its delegates to support this industry shift.”
Before working at Brit, Alex worked in East Africa, where his company, Tanda, supports micro-retailers to offer accessible, digital services to the under-served rural communities across Kenya.
“It is important that we are able to collaborate with a variety of experts within the industry, and I am thrilled to welcome Alex as a Coaching Director to help delegates in understanding valuable techniques associated with tech-focused growth,” said Caroline Bedford, EDII Chief Executive.
