AXA XL Risk Consulting has introduced AXA Immersive Solutions, designed to provide training for risk managers, facilities or plant managers, and site operators through the use of virtual reality (VR) and digital twin technologies.

The insurance firm said AXA Immersive Solutions – developed in collaboration with AXA Digital Commercial Platform and innovation unit AXA Next – will give its risk consultants access to a 3D model of a standard factory. It added that a model of a client’s site can be developed to provide more realistic training and better address their specific risk prevention needs.

“Our clients are increasingly using Digital Twin capabilities to model their production sites, processes and supply chains to drive productivity and improve safety,” said AXA XL Risk Consulting global head Jonathan Salter (pictured).

“With AXA Immersive Solutions, we are leveraging the same technology to create risk and insurance services that have the potential to be far more efficient than traditional solutions, especially when combined with the expertise of our experienced risk consultants.”

“The development of VR-enabled training solutions for our risk consultants and clients is just one exciting area of innovation that demonstrates our ability to provide disruptive yet simple solutions to complex problems, all while speaking the same language as our most future-focused customers,” said Dan Bendavid, global innovation lead at AXA XL.
