55% of organizations already have an AI-related innovation focus, even at the earliest stages of maturity.

That's one finding from Plug and Play's global survey of 1,000+ professionals across corporations, government bodies, and universities. 3 in 4 want external innovation help. 45% want to work with startups but haven't started. And the top ask, by far, is faster, lower-risk ways to pilot new ideas.

The intent is there. See what's missing, and what closes the gap.

Buying or building the engine is the million-dollar question agentic AI is presenting insurers with.

In a highly regulated industry, a blanket buy strategy leaves high-exposure workflows vulnerable, while a total build strategy can take up to 24 months just to show a return.

We've assessed three different paths and developed a framework for evaluating your firm's risk tolerance, internal capability, and time-to-value.

Most carriers won't pick one path. They'll build the high-risk core, like underwriting and claims, where accountability matters most, and buy the rest, from compliance to procurement, where speed and standardization win.

The U.S. is 100% import-dependent for 12 critical minerals, and new mines take 10 to 15 years to permit, which is exactly why AI-enabled waste sorting matters right now. It can pull those same materials out of waste already sitting in U.S. landfills, hitting 90-99% recovery rates versus about 60% for manual sorting, with classification decisions made in under 60 milliseconds.

That performance jump is why the robotic waste sorting market is set to grow from $2.8B in 2025 to $6.7B by 2030, an 18.6% CAGR.

Our new report breaks down the technology, the market, and the investment case.
