InsTech.ie Foundry
To kick-off the first cohort of the InsTech.ie Foundry ten early-stage insurtechs joined us for a day of discussions with people from across the insurance industry, hosted by Furthr in the Guinness Enterprise Centre.
Throughout the day we were joined by experts from across our member organisations, innovation partners and insurtechs, who shared their knowledge and experience with the group. To close the day we had a chat with Luke Mackey from Kota, who has lived the insurtech founder life over the past three years and shared his knowledge, learnings and advice with the group. We're excited to see these insurtechs learn and grow over the next six months.
