InsureTech Connect Selects Sønr as Global Market Intelligence Partner

Partnership to further strengthen ITC’s foundation of connecting the global insurtech community

Shelton, CT | March 20, 2023: InsureTech Connect (ITC), the world’s largest global network of insurance leaders and innovators, and Sønr, the world’s leading market intelligence business, have announced a new partnership. In doing so, their collaboration enables insurance companies around the world to connect with best-in-class investment, acquisition, and partnership opportunities, both digitally and through ITC’s global events network.

Bill Harris, ITC’s Chief Revenue Officer, shared, “Partnerships are key to our industry, driving both innovation and transformation. As the industry develops, options and opportunities rapidly increase, and it can be difficult to identify the companies that are most relevant to your needs. Our partnership with Sønr allows ITC to provide better insights on who is who, with specific details on maturity level, deployed technology, and focus. We look to support our customers when they decide which insurtechs to engage, meet at our events, and ultimately create partnerships.”

Beyond access to shared data and insights to help insurers and brokers more efficiently make informed decisions, customers will experience a new resource: regional emerging insurtech lists, along with in-person opportunities to hear from and connect with Sønr at ITC’s global events.

Matt Connolly, CEO, Sønr said, “Our job is to help insurance companies innovate better. Over the years we’ve created unparalleled market intelligence, built a world-class services team, and are proud to work with clients across the US, Europe, and APAC. Throughout this journey, there’s been one company I’ve always wanted to partner with – ITC. I’m excited to see what we can now achieve together.”

Bill Harris added, “Since we launched ITC, we have been steadfast in our dedication to connecting insurance executives with insurtech leaders, contributing to the adoption of insurtech at scale and creating maximum value for our community globally. Leveraging the intelligence of Sønr helps us take this to a new, unrivaled level.”
