Windsor, 14 April 2008 – Pitney Bowes MapInfo and Pitney Bowes Group 1 Software, the leading providers of location intelligence and Customer Communication Management solutions, today announce the presentation highlights of the dedicated insurance industry stream at Interact 08, taking place on 29-30 April 2008 at the Hilton Birmingham Metropole.

Following on from Stuart Murray, The Innovation Group’s Stephen Plante will be outlining the significant advantages that location intelligence lends to accuracy in Peril Mapping in context to specific examples in subsidence, flood and theft.

Presenting a comprehensive analysis of the recent Pitt Report, Tony Boobier, strategic insurance industry manager Pitney Bowes MapInfo, will bring to focus the key findings of Sir Michael Pitt’s interim report on the flood-related emergencies of 2007 and how flood modelling technology will address the critical human factor and pay great dividends to insurers.
