INTERVIEW
JAMES: Alright, alright, alright, we are got another International show today. I am so excited, we got two Texans and somebody over in Queens-Country, London, England! So exciting to have an international crew here today. I am James Benham, your InsurTech Geek and we are not going to talk about anything but Tech today. That is right! Now, to reference Harry Potter, we are not going to talk about that what shall not be named, the virus that shall not be named! We are not talking about that! You hear enough about that everywhere else, you are here to Geek out on InsureTech because the world keeps turning and InsureTech keeps building, and that what is were here to discuss today. And with me today, for the first time as a Co-Host, Rob Galbraith from San Antonio Texas. Good to see another Texan! And Rob, how is it going today?
ROB: It is going awesome James, great to see us rocking our casual look in the home office today.
JAMES: Exactly, we are all home officing it. Everybody's at JBKnowledge, all 213 of our employees are rocking it out at home, we opened a Teams, we use Teams and we opened a Teams Channel and we're sharing like photos of our home gyms, our home desks, the animals around us, we recognize this can be going on for a while, so we're getting comfortable, getting set-up, definitely trying to be as comfortable as possible. Joining us from London England, Sabine VanderLinden, how are you doing?
SABINE: I am very well James! Thank you very much for having me! You know it is 1 o'clock here in London, so I cannot wait to have my glass of something at some point!
JAMES: Excellent! Yeah, you know as we say in Texas, and around the US, it is 5 o'clock somewhere, so it does not even matter if it is 5 o clock. If it is time to have a drink, get a drink! It is all good. I respect that. Really-really-excited to have both of you here today. Rob as a co-host. Sabine as our guest. For those of you who do not remember, Rob Galbraith is the most interesting man in Insurance. That is right. He has a wonderful book called The End of Insurance as we know it. Go and check that out! He will be joining me in asking some great questions, and also, a fellow Texa-Michigander, goes from Texas to Michigan. I go from College Station to South Haven, he goes from San Antonio to East Lansing, so we make a similar North - South migration, like giant birds that fly North and South. So, we are going to have a good time talking today. Let us just jump right in. Sabine, you are a CO-Founder of Startup-Boot Camp, and we are going to talk about that in just a minute. But walk me through your life. Where were you born and raised? What did you study? What did you think you were going to do as a career, and how did you end up here?
SABINE: Okay, so I am French, so I was born in Paris, many years ago. I still look quite young, so I am going to keep my age -if I can- hidden.
