MUNICH, GERMANY, April 19th, 2021 - Plug and Play Insurtech announces 14 startups joining the sixth cohort of their 3-month accelerator program “Insurtech Europe powered by Plug and Play.” The program aims at facilitating POCs and pilot projects between the selected startups and the program partners including Generali, Versicherungskammer, RheinLand Verischerungen, Irish Life, Swiss Re, Munich Re, Baloise, Unipol, Vienna Insurance Group and Wiener Städtische Versicherung, Aflac, ADAC, AOK Bayern as well as Foyer.
Unlike many other accelerators, this program is focused on business development for growth-stage startups, for which Plug and Play offers the services of the world's largest innovation platform including mentorship, venture capital, and business development opportunities. Due to the constraints of COVID-19, the programs have transitioned to a fully virtual curriculum wherein the selected companies will be connected virtually to partners in private one-on-one sessions and have the potential to be featured in webinars hosted by Plug and Play. By introducing the world’s best technology startups to the multiple stakeholders on the platform, we drive the innovation activity of the entire insurtech industry.
Plug and Play programs do not require any equity or fees from the startups, they provide them with a unique business development opportunity for free. This way startups and partners can ensure that Plug and Play will meet their requirements and establish valuable long-term business relationships with their network.
