Oct 21 Newsletter: Escape the Overwhelm at InsureTech Connect

This Fall has been a busy season for New York insurance innovators. The major event of the season was ITC, chaired by fellow Manhattan resident, Jay Weintraub.

Flash forward to last week, we joined a small group of entrepreneurs in Des Moines at the Global Insurance Accelerator for GIA week. GIA featured one NYC InsurTech, Protosure, and one of our upcoming speakers, Jane Wang from Optimity.
