Hey everyone, Tom Raftery here, and I'm thrilled to share this episode of the Climate Confident podcast with you! I had an engaging conversation with Stephen Brittain, Director and co-founder of Insurtech Gateway, a company focused on supporting and incubating insurtech startups that address climate challenges.

In this episode, Stephen discusses:

  • How Insurtech Gateway helps early-stage climate founders de-risk their business ideas with a unique platform for idea development and experienced mentors
  • The challenges of finding the right projects and startups to support in the climate space
  • Some fascinating examples of innovative startups Insurtech Gateway has helped, including FloodFlash, Kita, and a carbon credits protection initiative
  • The importance of collaboration with climate investors and building strong partnerships to help innovators succeed in their climate goals
  • Stephen's own journey from product designer to insurtech entrepreneur and his vision for the future of Insurtech Gateway

For any early-stage climate insurtechs - Applications are now open for a new wave of climate insurtechs to join Insurtech Gateway’s incubator. Applications close on the 5th of July but start dates are flexible. Those currently in accelerators or venture builders can apply now, then join Insurtech Gateway when ready.
