Virtual 2023 Probability Management Summit

Risks, Opportunities & Projects in

Risk Management, Healthcare and Defense

Tuesday October 3, 8:30 AM - 4:00 PM EDT
Wednesday October 4, 8:30 AM - 4:00 PM EDT

Webinar hosting by: Highmark Health - Pittsburgh, PA

Description

Join the livestream as a select group of thought leaders gather in Pittsburgh, PA to discuss how breakthroughs in computation and data standards help organizations quantify the uncertainties in risks, opportunities, and projects. We will demonstrate how to leverage these open technologies while highlighting applications in Risk Management, Healthcare and Defense.

Virtual attendees will have the opportunity to actively participate as our host, Highmark Health will have moderators soliciting questions in advance and be available throughout the summit for live questions and discussions.

The fee to attend this two day event is $200.

Speakers and Topics (in order of appearance)

Sam Savage: Ushering in the Chance Age

  • Avoiding the Flaw of Averages

  • The Hindu/Arabic Numbers of Uncertainty

  • Chancification – Wiring your organization for probability

Justin Schell: Powering Strategic Decisions with ECap Modeling

  • Creating a highly flexible capital model to measure risk capacity using the SIPmath Standard.

  • Leveraging SIPmath libraries from other processes (e.g., Cyber Insurance) in the enterprise Model.

  • Using the ECap model as a “Probability Power Plant” to power decisions elsewhere in the enterprise.

John Button: Values & Hidden Risk: Unveiling Hidden Risks in Scientific Modeling

  • Reiterate the importance of understanding the role of values in any scientific modeling.

  • Emphasize the need for ongoing critical evaluation of models to ensure hidden risks are identified and addressed.

  • Present an example from Probability Management on one attempt to bridge the gaps.

Brian Paul & Claudia Piccirilli: Optimizing Insurance Portfolio Investments – Leveraging Cyber Quantification

  • Leveraging the proprietary WTW Connected Risk Intelligence (CRI) model to help organizations evaluate their total risk

  • Applying this approach to develop an optimal risk financing strategy

  • Leveraging our NEW Cyber Quantified model as but one critical input to the CRI engine.

Jack Jones: Staying Ahead of Cyber Threats with FAIR & SIPmath

  • Combining FAIR and the SIPmath Standard to gain near real-time visibility into an organization's susceptibility to cyber-attacks.

Mandi Surgeon: Optimizing Investment Allocations

  • Use key measurements to assess portfolio performance for returns, mid-range risk and severe risk.

  • Identify how stochastic optimization can improve asset allocation based on portfolio return objectives.

Lakhbir Lamba: Data Driven Risk Management

  • Using data to manage credit risk

  • Leveraging AI to mitigate fraud risk

Jim Brown: Welcome

  • Insights from the cutting edge of the healthcare transformation.

Tony DeMarco and Linda Dao: Financial Risk Assessment Tool for Logistics Contract

  • Lockheed Martin’s simulation tool examines the effects of uncertain part demand / customer flight hours on financial metrics.

  • Optimizing contract parameters and exploring possible outcomes.

  • Applying Monte Carlo simulations using SIPmath to a financial risk quantification scenario.

Peter Mallik: Probabilistic Representations of Psychological Phenomena

  • Understand the history of probabilistic applications to sensation and perception.

  • Identify how internal and external factors can impact probabilistic representations within cognition.

Eng-Wee Yeo: Delivering Savings in IT Portfolio Investments

  • Using the FAIR-SIPmath approach to connect risk management and investment decisions.

  • Applying this approach to other risk functions in the enterprise.

Matthew Raphaelson: The Future of Probability Management

  • Tools: Developments in native excel… and how to make any platform “Chance Age-compatible.”

  • Standards: Involve and Evolve

  • Governance:

    • FAIR-SIPmath Approach

    • The Chief Probability Office

Max Henrion: Moving Uncertainty Management from Spreadsheets to Full Enterprise Applications

  • Learn how the SIPmath Standard is integrated into Analytica to create and use SIPs.

  • How to use Analytica to create web-based interactive dashboards.

Shayne Kavanagh & Dr. Sam Savage: Risk Spend Efficiency with Catastrophe Modeling in Local Government
