S2 E10: Actuarial Talk: Dan Gelderd

Back to Blogs

Welcome to series two, episode ten of our podcast, Actuarial Talk!

The final episode of Series Two of Actuarial Talk is here!

William Gallimore is joined by Dan Gelderd, founder of ACT Collab (Actuarial Collaborative Technology), a business created with a bold vision: to make Python the natural choice for actuarial work.

With an impressive background spanning capital modelling roles across the London Market, from consulting at EMB to leading Aon’s Tyche Capital Model product,  Dan brings a blend of actuarial expertise and software development insight.

Dan shares his journey from life as a teacher to the actuarial world, discusses the story behind ACT Collab and its mission to connect actuarial science with modern technology, and reflects on his passion for AI, which he describes as one of the great wonders of the world, while joking (we hope!) that it could one day end civilisation.

The Actuarial Talk podcast tells Dan's story.

An entertaining and insightful discussion to round off the series!

Will and the HFG team would like to thank everyone who’s tuned in and supported Actuarial Talk throughout Series Two!
