ITC Europe 2026 Returns to Barcelona with Two Days of World-Class Insurance Innovation

ITC Europe, the continent’s leading insurtech event, is set to return to the stunning La Llotja de  Mar in Barcelona on 28–29 May 2026. Under the theme “The Art of Innovation: Where  Creativity Meets Capability,” the event will bring together more than 650 insurers, insurtechs,  and investors for two focused days of senior-led content, high-value networking, and  transformative ideas shaping the future of European insurance. 

Designed for insurance leaders who want depth, clarity, and real connection, the 2026  programme spans six strategic themes: Strategy & Leadership, Operating Models & Execution, Regulation, Risk & Resilience, Technology & Data, Distribution, Brand & Customer, and Startup  & Venture Innovation. 

The Main Stage will host a compelling mix of keynotes, fireside chats, and panels tackling the  industry’s most pressing topics from claims transformation and underwriting innovation to cyber  resilience, regulation, and sustainability. Alongside this, interactive Roundtables and Workshops  give delegates the chance to benchmark strategies, share real-world experiences, and leave  with practical, immediately applicable solutions. 

The Expo brings together leading technology providers for live demonstrations, while the  Innovation Zone shines a spotlight on the startups reimagining insurance through AI, IoT, and  data analytics. The Challenge Labs add an interactive twist, where innovators pitch live  solutions to real insurer problems, with the audience deciding the winner. 

Beyond the agenda, ITC Europe 2026 is designed to be experienced. An Opening Beach Party  sets the tone on the day before the conference. On day one, there’s also a Tapas Happy Hour  that keeps conversations flowing on the expo floor, and an exclusive Gaudí Walking Tour takes  delegates into the heart of one of history’s most extraordinary architectural minds.
