Speaker Bio
Grace Apea is AVP, Product Marketing & Market Insights at Equisoft, where she leads go-to-market strategy, competitive positioning, and market intelligence across Equisoft's full product portfolio. She sets the commercial narrative for how Equisoft's insurance and wealth management technology is positioned in market, and translates product capability into buyer-relevant value across carrier, MGA, and advisor channels.

Before moving into product marketing, Grace served as AVP, Product Development, where she was a core member of the leadership team that designed and delivered Equisoft/Amplify's platform modules. That product development background gives her firsthand technical and operational depth in the AI-native insurance platform she now takes to market.
