In this episode of InsurTech Amplified, we had the pleasure of welcoming Alexis Cierra Vaughn Vaughn, the Founder and CEO of OffCourse Consulting back to the pod. Over the past ten months, OffCourse has experienced rapid growth, expanding into multiple entities. A key driver of this success has been strategic partnerships, such as their collaboration with Global Leader Group, which allows them to assist InsurTech companies globally in building and scaling innovation labs. Alexis highlighted the power of visibility through industry presence rather than traditional advertising, sharing how speaking engagements and podcasts have been instrumental in generating leads and establishing credibility. Alexis also discussed the importance of addressing specific pain points for carriers and reinsurers, such as the lack of due diligence in evaluating InsurTech partnerships. OffCourse’s tech auditing services play a crucial role in ensuring compatibility and effectiveness in these partnerships. Additionally, she touched on the growing interest in parametric products, mobility solutions, and cybersecurity for SMBs. Alexis is passionate about education, working with the University of Connecticut to develop a comprehensive InsurTech course, and fostering entrepreneurship among agents and brokers to turn innovative ideas into viable businesses. OffCourse’s evolution into a multifaceted entity underscores the need for adaptability and diversification in the rapidly evolving InsurTech landscape.

🚀 Is an insurtech start-up born to fail? I beg to differ. Despite the frequent news of successful companies facing trouble and the lack of trust in the space, I believe the future is bright. How can you build a successful insurtech? I've worked for 25 years in insurance, both in corporate and start-up environments. I advise start-ups in the insurtech field and can often predict which companies will soar and which will end up in insolvency. 🧠 Here are 5 lessons I’ve learned to help you when starting an insurtech: 👉 Define the customer problem to solve. Precisely. A customer problem, not your company’s problems. The fact that you are far from end customers is not their problem. It is yours. The fact that the end customer cannot buy relevant, embedded insurance at the point of sale is a customer problem. 🎯 👉 Think about why the product you offer makes a difference. Will you offer Cool Homeowners insurance, Cool Motor, Cool IoT, and Supercool Cyber Insurance? What difference do you make compared to traditional companies? The “Cool” factor plays little importance for the end customer. 🤔 👉 Focus: probably the most important lesson. You might have a house full of geniuses. But even with the most talented team, you need focus. You can expand across geographies after proving product-market fit, but make sure you know what you are doing. Diversity across all dimensions will lead to chaos in implementation. 🔍 👉 Team and skills: complementary skills are key. A great team of technologists without the “boring” side of insurance will create a “cool” but unusable product. Likewise, insurance experts without technology would rather flip papers. 🛠️ 👉 Culture, culture, and culture: You need a diversity of skills and opinions. You need people who respect each other’s experience. Traditional knowledge is as valuable as technology, and neither works without the other. 🌐 Don’t get discouraged by news of companies becoming insolvent. Innovation will continue, and the sector needs it. Just be ruthless in challenging your own beliefs. Together, we can make insurance great! 🏆 #Insurtech #Innovation #Leadership ——————————— 🎤 I write about leadership, wellness, and the role of insurance in changing the world.
