Our take
Despite the insurance industry being one of the largest in the world, it has operated the same way for hundreds of years, failing to utilise technology and innovation to become more streamlined. This leaves it at risk of being left behind by other sectors, which is what Companjon wants to change.
A leading European tech venture, it specialises in embedded insurance that’s fully digital, end-to-end, and hassle-free. Its EDI (event-driven interactions) model has already proven hugely successful in Asia, and as one of the early businesses to bring this into the Western markets, Companjon will have a big head start.
Having earned a strong reputation already, Companjon's priority is to capitalise on this momentum and continue propelling its growth in the sector. If the company continues to invest in the platform and make strategic expansion moves, it should continue on its streak of success.
