Overview
The pace of technological sophistication has accelerated continuously in recent years. This technological development also influences the insurance industry strongly and in doing so has given new players, the so called InsurTechs, access to the market. Due to the partially disruptive business models of InsurTechs, the market is constantly changing. In order to maintain an overview of the relevant technological trends, it is of major importance both for the industry itself and for academic research to identify the major players and assess their potential. Therefore, this project aims to identify and categorise these companies in the European market. In order to provide an overview of the growing InsurTech sector, a systematic database with various sector-specific metrics will be established and continuously updated and complemented.
