Insurtech Insider Podcast by 11:FS

Insurtech Insider Podcast by 11:FS covers the insurance industry at the point where technology, capital, regulation, and risk meet. It is not a hype show. The conversations tend to start from a market event or a broad question, then test what that development means in operational terms. News episodes cover items such as insurtech funding pressure, Ford working with By Miles, business interruption claims, cookie coverage, and Zopper raising money to address insurance access in India. Insight episodes spend more time with structural themes, including open insurance, climate insurance, and micro insurance in emerging markets. The panel format gives the show its shape. Speakers define the issue, pass it around, challenge easy assumptions, and come back to the consequences for customers and insurers. Climate risk is a recurring pressure point, appearing through Hurricane Ian, vulnerable markets, parametric products, dynamic pricing, ESG, and the question of what becomes uninsurable. Customer trust is another steady concern. The show is particularly alert to the gap between making insurance easier to buy and making it genuinely better understood. Embedded insurance, for example, is treated as both an opportunity and a possible source of less visible, less informed purchasing. The same practical caution appears in discussions of open insurance, where data access has to be weighed against business models, culture change, and regulation. Micro insurance episodes widen the lens to people underserved by conventional insurance, including markets where smartphones and internet access cannot be assumed. The tone is measured, with occasional dry humor in introductions and handoffs. It assumes curiosity rather than deep expertise. Listeners get industry vocabulary, but usually with enough context to stay oriented. The show is best when it asks who benefits, what changes, and what has to be true before a promising insurance idea can work in the real world.
