Since insurance and risk management is a major industry in this state, with a concentration of such industry in Volusia County, the institute must be located in Volusia County. Like many other industries in the state, the insurance and risk management industry is being revolutionized by, among other things, the integration of technology, predictive analytics, and data science, and is becoming more complex, given its exposure to transformative trends in the economy and environment. The purpose of the institute is to respond to the ever-evolving insurance and risk management industry and the present and emerging needs of this state and its residents. The goals of the institute are to:
(1) Pursue technological innovations that advance risk valuation models and operational efficiencies in the insurance industry.
