In this edition of For Immediate Release podcast interviews, Neville enjoyed a 14-minute conversation with Pia de Gysser, CIO at Agria Insurance, an animal and crop insurer based in Stockholm, Sweden, recorded at the IBC Euroforum conference “The Web of Tomorrow” which took place in Stockholm on September 5-6.

Our conversation focuses on the web as a knowledge resource for customers and includes the role of forums and blogs at Agria and running blogs on the Lotus Domino platform.
