Jornaya Wins 2019 LIDMA Innovation Award
The Jornaya Activate Platform, powered by Identity Resolution technology, allows brands to understand where a consumer is in their relationship, and create the most valuable interaction they can. Any brand client is then able to leverage the Activate Platform's proprietary identity graph by providing hashed and anonymous identifiers about a consumer in their database as a starting point for Jornaya to reach into our network of behaviors to identify connected customer interactions.
"We're honored to receive the LIDMA Innovation Award for our Activate Platform," said Ross Shanken, Founder & CEO at Jornaya. "We're on a mission to organize and provide access to customers' major-life purchase (MLP) behaviors, enabling marketers to have the smartest and safest interactions. Receiving the Innovation Award from LIDMA confirms we're on the right path providing early behavioral buying signals with our Activate Platform."
"The way consumers shop for insurance will continue to evolve," said Jaimie Pickles, GM of Insurance at Jornaya. "Activate provides the only in-market shopping signal for life and health insurance marketers allowing for optimized timing and messaging for their retention, acquisition, and cross-sell marketing programs."
The information is delivered as a series of actionable data points lead buyers can assess in real-time by querying Jornaya (with the LeadiD Token), or through a daily monitoring feed of existing target customers. More information is available at https://www.jornaya.com/products/activate/
To determine Innovation Award finalists, LIDMA conducted a thorough review to ensure each applicant's technological or procedural improvement initiative is active or in an advanced stage of development. Finalists were then required to submit a brief video on their industry innovation. A panel of judges comprised of Founding members of LIDMA and an InsureTech expert then independently submitted "blind votes." Runners up for the 2019 Innovation Award included IXN Tech for its Scalable Mobile App, ExamOne for its Health PiQture service, Insurance Technologies for FireLight®, Lincoln Financial for Lincoln Chat With Us, Pacific Life for Electronic Requirements and Jornaya for Activate.
