Lloyd’s has announced the 12 teams that will join the 11th cohort of the Lloyd’s Lab, the InsurTech accelerator hub for developing innovative insurance products in the Lloyd’s market.
The accelerator gives InsurTechs access to a coworking space in the Lloyd’s building and the chance to develop their ideas alongside their target audience for a period of 10 weeks.
Each InsurTech will be aligned with one of three themes:
- Asia-Pacific Climate Risk, Cyber and Sustainability will focus on developing solutions to some of the biggest risks faced by businesses and communities in the Asia-Pacific regions.
- Data & Models will focus on enhancing underwriting efficiency through improvements in risk assessment tools, portfolio management and claims handling processes.
- New Products will focus on fostering insurance products that can address underinsurance issues and significantly enhance existing coverages.
The Lloyd’s Lab received over 150 applications to join its latest cohort from a range of InsurTechs across the world. A competitive pitch day was held at Lloyd’s on Aug. 31, where 12 InsurTechs from six countries were chosen across the three categories:
