Our story started in 2018, when the German Association of Actuaries hosted the International Congress of Actuaries, ICA 2018, and decided to support it with a virtual component. The Virtual ICA became the prototype for the very first video platform specifically designed for actuaries and insurance and finance experts.
After the extraordinary conference in Berlin, the team started to think about what to do with this new platform that already offered so many exciting features for actuaries worldwide. By the end of the year 2018, the decision was made: We would establish this video platform as a long-term service. Then, the fun part started: During the congress the streams and videos were all gathered under the name “VICA 2018”, now we needed a new name, a new design, a new brand. And already in the early stages of this new project called actuview, the team realized what great potential lie in other ideas for global media services for the actuarial profession.
So, we didn’t just establish one new brand, we designed three: actuview, actupool, and actubase. The last one was going to be our corner stone. With all the ideas, visions, and possibilities in the making, we knew, we needed a solid foundation. actubase is this foundation, the base from which all of our services are derived, from which we will expand our universe.
