Geospatial Insight delighted to be selected for PwC Scale InsurTech Programme

Geospatial Insight has been selected as one of nine of the brightest international InsurTech businesses. The Scale InsurTech programme was founded by PwC and Early Metrics to help fast-growth and high potential businesses connect to leaders and decision makers within the insurance industry.

The 12-week programme aims to help businesses to raise their profiles, identify commercial opportunities and prepare their business to scale. Furthermore, Scale InsureTech seeks to enable the forging of mutually beneficial relationships between established insurance organisations and innovative InsurTech’s to drive profitability and growth.

“We are thrilled to be part of the Scale InsurTech 2018 cohort and look forward to further developing our innovative solutions in the insurance sector.”

Dave Fox, CEO of Geospatial Insight

The rapid growth of technology and subsequent availability of vast quantities of data has redefined the way in which insurance companies define and price risk. However, Morgan Stanley highlight that many insurers are still trying to understand the best way to capitalise upon this explosion of data. Therefore, combining the knowledge of insurers and the innovation of technology companies makes perfect sense. In a nut shell Scale InsurTech 2018 strives to achieve this collaboration.

“We are thrilled to be part of the Scale InsurTech 2018 cohort and look forward to further developing our innovative solutions in the insurance sector. Providing risk intelligence derived from the analysis of satellite, aerial and drone imagery provides a perfect platform to pool our expertise with that of insurance industry leaders”
