Episode description
We are sharing a really great episode on The Leadership In Insurance Podcast today. I sat down with Aviad Pinkovezky, President at First Connect, a Hippo Insurance company to discuss all things from Hippo’s story, to acquiring First Connect and beyond.
Acquired by Hippo in 2020, First Connect is a digital platform that helps independent insurance agents access carriers and insurtechs they may not otherwise reach on their own.
Aviad and I discuss a whole host of topics (and could have spoken for much longer!) digging into Aviad’s background in product, to the growth of Hippo, to why partner and the opportunities that lie in collaboration. Here are some of the highlights…
👉 As someone from the product side of technology - how do you think perception of insurance as an employment destination for product and tech people has evolved over time?
👉 The Insurtech landscape from a wider lense - What have been the biggest improvements of insurance customer experience in the time you’ve been at hippo? What part has product played in that?
👉 First Connect Acquisition - What the rational? What’s the opportunity you saw? Why this route as opposed to doubling down on the existing success you have?
👉 First Connect on a personal level - does it feel like a start up? Does it need to?
👉 Collaboration in the Insurance industry, what have you learnt? How can we empace this more?
👉 & Finally, what’s next for First Connect?
Thank you Aviad for your time, it was great to speak to you!
