From Insurepal raising $18m in 80 seconds with an ICO, to Wrisk finding over 500 new potential clients (and an additional $500,000 investment) on Seedrs and Tapoly's first round of funding from LCIF we had a great selection of speakers at our event - and a highly engaged audience. Many thanks to QBE for sponsoring
There are now over 40 insurance companies with venture arms but QBE stood out last year when it announced a $50m fund to support companies where it could also be a strategic partner, with active board support. So far QBE, which generates premium income of $14bn, has only invested $5m of its funds (in Cytora and Cover Genius) but it too is filling a gap between seed and major VC funding
