In a significant gathering at the Future of Mobility Summit in Istanbul, prominent figures from the mobility and insurance sectors convened under the guidance of Yavuz Ölken, CEO of AXA Turkey.

Ölken remarked that insurance is evolving beyond a reactive system that activates only post-damage. He stated, “Mobility has transcended traditional transportation; it represents a new lifestyle interwoven with data, technology, and sustainability. This paradigm shift, impacting areas from public policy to insurance payment systems, requires a multidisciplinary approach. At AXA Turkey, we craft insurance solutions that align with the needs of electric and autonomous vehicles, offering pricing models driven by real-time data from connected vehicles.
