Techsurance, a newsletter for insurance and insurtech lovers :)
The most important news on how technology is reshaping insurance and vice-versa, every week in your mailbox
Welcome to Techsurance, the newsletter for insurance and insurtech lovers!
My name is Romain, I’m in charge of the home insurance product at Direct Assurance, a leading French digital direct insurance player that sells auto and home insurance and boasts +1 million customers.
On a weekly basis, I'll share my some key insights from the #industry and the insurance technology space, fund-raising news, smart home and home insurance news, as well as M&A/partnership news.
Where does the name Techsurance come from ? Following the first wave of Fintechs back in the early 2010s, some commentators pointed out that financial institutions would increasingly adopt technology (Fintech), but also that tech firms would increasingly venture into financial services to differentiate and add new revenue streams (techfin). The same move is also happening in the insurance industry, with traditional insurers and neo-insurers adopting tech (Insurtech) and digital-first players venturing into the complex business of insurance (techinsur, but I'm fonder of techsurance).
