Traditional underwriting is evolving, and AI-powered platforms are leading the charge. In this episode, Robin Merttens speaks with Will Ross, CEO and Co-founder of Federato, about how their RiskOps platform is helping insurers make smarter, faster underwriting decisions. Federato enables underwriters to triage submissions, prioritise in-appetite risks and streamline workflows using AI-driven insights.

The discussion also covers Federato's recent $40 million USD Series C funding, its expansion into the UK market and how the RiskOps approach is catching on as a fundamental shift in underwriting strategy. Key Talking Points: The RiskOps mindset – bringing portfolio-level intelligence to risk-by-risk decision-making How AI prioritises in-appetite and winnable risks for underwriters Automating submission workflows to cut response times by up to 89% The impact of RiskOps adoption on quote volumes and portfolio performance Why Federato has seen 3x year-over-year growth The UK market opportunity – differences in tech adoption and underwriting strategies The story behind Federato's $40M Series C raise and the role of StepStone Group Expansion plans and the future of AI-driven underwriting f you like what you're hearing, please leave us a review on whichever platform you use or contact Robin Merttens on LinkedIn.

Send us a textChristina “Redd” Daugherty focused on open mics for a large part of her performing history but stopped performing as frequently during her approximately decade-long position as a high school English teacher at L&N STEM Academy in Knoxville, Tennessee. After the COVID-19 pandemic, however, she started performing at open mics again. At these open mics, she met and became friends with Katie Adams and Colleen d'Alelio, who had moved to Knoxville together after the pandemic and after performing in a group called Quality Code Names. A mutual friend, bassist Will Ross, introduced Daugherty to Gavin Gregg. Ross ultimately performed with both in a trio formation called Redd the Band, but Ross and Daugherty have stopped performing together due to creative differences. Soon after this new group of four met, though, they collectively realized they had similar musical goals and started playing together almost instantly.Daugherty had already started focusing on music full-time. After taking a music marketing class taught by Adam Ivy, she worked more closely with him and took much of his advice. Her students submitted on her behalf a video of her performing to the team of American Idol, and Daughterty ultimately received a confidence boost after placing in the Top 40 of Season 19.She also released various singles under her nickname Redd that she later compiled into the physical release Monsters & Mothers, and by the time of the release of that album, she had quit teaching entirely to pursue music. Now, with a group of people that gelled together quickly, Daugherty (lead singer and rhythm guitarist), Gregg (mandolin player and lead/backup vocalist), Adams (bassist, upright bassist, and backup vocalist), and d'Alelio (cellist and lead/backup vocalist) decided to form the group now known as Redd and the Paper Flowers.

Willie & The Cigs join Emily to chat about their debut full-length, Loaded WIth Hits. They chat about the group's success in the Cincinnati, OH music scene, playing shows, dedicated practice schedules, plans for a new album, and how the inner workings of the band's relations are exactly like Fleetwood Mac (kinda).  Be sure to support the group by buying their record on Bandcamp and enjoy the show. ________________________________________________________________ Willie & the Cigs is a western garage band based in Cincinnati, OH. Inspired to recontextualize the exciting sounds of early rock artists like Jerry Lee Lewis, Little Richard, and The Velvet Underground, the band is driven to make music that invigorates and shocks the ears of the 21st-century listener.  Formed in 2019 by longtime friends Will Ross (guitar), Patrick Zopff (guitar), and Megan Denham (bass), they started performing live in 2021 and soon after published their first record, Loaded With Hits. Revival is not the word for it, The Cigs are making everything new again. The group quickly gathered momentum in Cincinnati's budding music scene and enlisted Dana Schriever (keys), Owen Kenney (pedal steel), and Chase Leonard (drums) before they started traveling and performing regionally as a six-piece rock n' roll force of nature. Every show is a tumult of nostalgia and frenzy, memorable and intoxicating all at once.  Megan and Will met in high school and have been playing music together for about 5 years. Owen and Will met at School of Rock in 2013, a program for youth musicians. Everyone met Patrick, Chase, and Dana through the Clifton community of artists and musicians. Everyone's been playing for quite a few years, Will and Owen probably the longest. The group has been traveling out of town a lot playing shows in Milwaukee WI, Chicago IL, Muncie IN, Lansing MI, Columbus OH, and Ft Wayne IN, and plan on putting out their second album by the end of the year. insta: @willieandthecigs

Three years ago, BBC radio broadcaster Helena Merriman received a shock diagnosis related to hearing loss after giving birth to her son. This prompted her to explore how people handle life-changing news about their health in a new radio series called Room 5 that airs on Radio 4 this week. Helena joins Emma to discuss the power of resilience. One of the first female bus drivers in the UK says she is fighting to keep her job after a new bus design left her unable to reach the pedals. Emma speaks to Tracey Scholes from Manchester who says that because of her height - five feet - she can no longer drive the new buses safely. The bus company involved say other staff of a similar height to Tracey are able to drive the vehicles safely. New figures from the Office of National Statistics show that an estimated 1.3 million people in the UK have "long Covid" – defined as symptoms lasting more than four weeks. We know that women are more likely to be affected by long Covid, and that it can also occur in children. Dr Nisreen Alwan is Associate Professor in Public Health at the University of Southampton. In Sudan, thousands of people have again taken to the streets of the capital, Khartoum, to protest against military rule, following the resignation of Prime Minister Abdalla Hamdok. Reports from medics on the ground say more than 50 people have lost their lives since a military coup took place in October last year. For several years, there has been continued unrest in the country, and headlines around the world have shown women at the forefront of the revolution and pro-democracy movement - but is that the full story? And how are things for women there now? Raga Makawi, a Sudanese democracy activist and editor at African Arguments and Will Ross, the BBC's Africa Editor join Emma. Almost 300 years after the Witchcraft Acts were repealed, a bill has been bought forward in the Scottish parliament to pardon those convicted. This comes after a two-year campaign to clear the names of nearly 4,000 people accused of witchcraft, of whom well over half were executed. Zoe Venditozzi co-founded the campaign and co-hosts the Witches of Scotland podcast. Marion Gibson is Professor of Renaissance and Magical Literatures at the University of Essex and author of Witchcraft: the basics.
