While evaluating the InsurTech landscape in 2015, Caribou came to realize there was no opportunity for entrepreneurs, investors, and innovation executives in the industry to convene…so he decided to create one.

Caribou is cofounder of InsureTech Connect (ITC), the largest event of its type in the world. In his role as Chairman of ITC, Caribou steers the agenda, sets the tone with his opening keynote and provides guidance on the overall strategy for the event.

Building on the success of ITC, Caribou also cofounded HR Transform. This event focuses on the impact of technology on the workplace. Bringing together Human Resource practitioners, startups, and investors, HR Transform examines the implications of technology for companies and the HR function.

From 1996 to 2006, Caribou began his career as an executive at Capital One. He developed a passion for data-driven marketing during this time, along with building expertise in credit risk and analytics. Responsibilities included leadership of business-critical digital transformation initiatives and management of a 200 person underwriting operation.

He holds a bachelor’s degree in Physics and Philosophy from Harvard University, a JD from the University of Virginia School of Law, and an MBA from Darden. With an eye towards giving back to the institution, he is a member of the Corporate Advisory Board for Darden.
