Gary Leyden CEO of InsTech.ie
As insurers move beyond AI experimentation towards enterprise-wide transformation, industry leaders are increasingly focused on one question: how do you scale AI to deliver measurable operational impact? This was one of the challenges explored at the recent InsTech.ie Transformation Summit 2026 and to find out more about this I caught up with Gary Leyden, CEO of InsTech.ie.
Gary talks to me about about his background, AI adoption, insurance transformation, and the trends shaping the future of the sector.
