Episode description

Hello and welcome to the latest episode of the Leadership in Insurance Podcast where this week we are lucky enough to be joined by Tiago Prado, Co-Founder & Chief Visionary Officer of BRZ Insurance the Boston-based start-up helping to build the next generation of financial services for Latinx in the US.


We had a great conversation this week where we discussed a wide range of topics such as:


  • Tiago's journey founding BRZ
  • Focusing on the underserved Latinx community that make up 18% of the population
  • Where does a new product start and finish? 
  • How does this thinking play out into your company culture and hiring strategy?
  • How do you tackle hiring experienced talent when there is an underrepresentation of talent that fits your mission? 
  • Why do you think the incumbent industry sees diversity as a challenge as opposed to an opportunity? 
  • Are there parallel problems in other industries, such as other wider finical services? Where is insurance on this journey?
  • Is this a global issue or something unique to the US? 
  • Is the success of BRZ a result of the increasing economic power the latinx community
  • Are we living society where we demand more products that are more representative of our needs? 


Thank you Tiago for your time, it was great to speak to you!
