InsurTech
Insurance distribution, underwriting and claims are being rebuilt by companies that sell into insurers rather than around them. We back the ones a carrier can actually deploy, and we invest alongside the carriers we operate for, so a portfolio company arrives with a named counterpart rather than a cold introduction.
Focus areas
Distribution and embedded insurance
Underwriting and pricing
Claims automation
Health and protection
Partner responsible
Sabine Vanderlinden
InsurTech Partner
Sabine co-founded Alchemy and spent twenty years inside insurance, including at Lloyd's of London. She built Startupbootcamp InsurTech, co-edited and co-authored The InsurTech Book, and lectures on the InsurTech Executive MBA at Bayes (formerly CASS). That combination is the reason corporate insurers take a Mandalore introduction: she has sat on their side of the table, and she knows which internal objection is really the one blocking a pilot.
