Anyone who thought insurance was boring should look again: our industry is bubbling with ideas, be it with new concepts or with creative solutions to old problems.
InsurTech startups are playing a vital role in making that change happen. That is why we organized UNIBA Partners’ first Insurtech competition this spring, showcasing innovative Insurtech and Fintech solutions to our worldwide network of insurance brokers.
The competition was divided into two sessions: one dedicated to our AsiaPac Partners and another for our Partners from the Americas, Africa & the Middle East, and Europe. Here, we introduce the nine startups that participated, while also announcing the two winners who will advance to the next phase of the competition at our Worldwide Conference in Dublin.

2. JustParent (UK)
JustParent allows employers to offer their staff an enhanced (above statutory) paid parental leave benefit, without the financial stress of potentially spiraling costs.
3. Neosurance (Italy)
With Neosurance, insurers and brands can offer the right insurance at the right time, creating customer experiences that drive the adoption of mobile insurance and close the protection gap.
