Zurich Innovation Championship
The Zurich Innovation Championship is back! It’s a yearly collaboration program between Zurich Insurance and startups from across the globe. The program aims to create and validate a joint value proposition between the Business unit of Zurich and the Startups. This goes beyond simply distributing or utilizing the startup's product. Instead, we aim to find ways of delivering value through new offers and services to our customers.
Global winners get selected by their executive judges, all part of Zurich’s global leadership team. Once selected, winners will receive an initial funding of USD 100’000 for a four-month accelerator (May-September) during which they’ll work closely with Zurich’s business units. Successful winning initiatives will then get the chance to pitch at a global Innovation Demo Day in September, before moving to adoption.
This year, they are focusing on the following four challenges:
- Commercial Insurance,
- Digital Simplification,
- Life & Health,
- Retail P&C.
