Organised by the EAA – European Actuarial Academy GmbH
In an era marked by unprecedented technological advancements, the actuarial landscape has experienced profound transformations. The exponential growth of computational power and the abundance of data have converged and provide an exciting opportunity for the actuarial profession to redefine its boundaries and explore the ethical implications of this new field.
The role of actuaries is evolving at an incredible pace but remains incompletely defined. We are at a crucial point where a new understanding of the possibilities of actuarial science and its ethical obligations needs to be created.
The European Actuarial Academy (EAA), renowned for its commitment to excellence in actuarial training and CPD activities in Europe, is once again thrilled to organize its annual EAA e-Conference on Data Science & Data Ethics in May 2026.
