InsurTech Hub Munich’s platform unlocks the power of collaboration, knowledge sharing, and a thriving community with the aim to revolutionize the insurance industry.
Together with its international insurance and cross-industry partners, startups, investors, academia and governmental entities, its mission is to deliver impactful innovation to the insurance ecosystem at the crossroads of insurance and technology.
ITHM is appointed as one of twelve de:hub digital innovation epicenters by the German government and funded by the Bavarian Ministry of Economic Affairs, Regional Development and Energy. Each year, the team guides corporates and startups through a series of programmes and formats to accelerate innovation and industry growth.
'There is no better and easier way for all insurance companies involved in the Insurtech Hub Munich to find out about the best international innovations and technologies. You get to know start-ups that would otherwise remain unknown to you. But they are also pre-selected and prepared. That saves time and creates quality.'
'The ITHM Innovation Programme was such an incredible experience. As we looked to expand into Europe, not only did we get in front of some of the largest players in the space but the ITHM team, in general, is incredible at giving you opportunities to learn, grow
and develop.'
'The ITHM Innovation Programme helped us launch in Germany by opening up a lot of commercial opportunities for us with potential insurance partners and by teaching us the ins and outs of the German insurance market much better than we would have been able to by ourselves'.
'Through the ITHM Innovation Programmes, we can perfectly assess the integration of the business ideas and the technologies of startups into our company’s products and services.'
‘At ITHM I learned a lot. One of the biggest learnings is that insurers are actively looking to cooperate with innovative startups. So, it really makes a lot of sense to apply for ITHM. They have the best connections and they are trusted partners’.
‘My first deep contact with ITHM was during an innovation trip to Israel it organized for its partners in 2019. Ever since, the hub has taken me on a number of horizon-broadening field trips - even though we had to undertake these from our home office screens, it’s staying loyal to its ambition of being a decidedly international network.’
‘We need talks with prospective partners to be meaningful and effective for both sides – and that’s where ITHM does a great job with its concierge services’
‘One of the strengths of the ITHM network is its diversity: Where else to find global players, regional champions and tech market leaders in one place?’
‘ITHM has helped us develop our knowledge of the German Insurance market and thanks to them we also have increased our network in Germany. The whole program was perfectly organised, and ITHM has great communication skills on top of that.’
International corporations, regional champions and cross-industry partners – it’s the diversity of the InsurTech Hub Munich partners network which enables vibrant and efficient collaboration, facilitates knowledge exchange and builds a strong and inclusive community.
Connecting founders to venture capitalists and providing them with the most up-to-date know-how from leading research institutions is one of the key benefits of being part of the InsurTech Hub Munich network
Being part of the family for life: The alumni network is a vital part of the InsurTech Hub Munich experience – and its successes are living proof for how the innovation programme can help scale up any startup
