Many insurtechs are trying to support the insurance industry with their solutions. Some are at the forefront of actively shaping this change. On 4 March 2025, the Swiss InsurTech Hub (SIH) presented five visionary companies that have the potential to permanently change the insurance landscape through their innovative approaches and solutions: Unit8, Riskine, bsurance, Diceus and Indico Data.
At the General Assembly of the Swiss InsurTech Hub (SIH), six speakers talked about their insurtechs. However, Marco De Falco from Swiss Re in London kicked off the proceedings by reporting on embedded insurance in the cargo sector. thebrokernews will be publishing an interview with him in the next few weeks.
