Building insurance super-apps | DigFin VOX 76

Sebastien Gaudin is founder of The CareVoice, an insurtech that has evolved to design apps for insurance companies to build a relationship with their policyholders.

The business just completed a $10 million Series B fund raise, a notable achievement in an environment that has been difficult for insurtech startups to secure investment.

Gaudin speaks with DigFin‘s Jame DiBiasio about why insurance companies are eager to develop “super-apps” combining insurance and related services, and how they are trying to go about it.
