The insurance industry is experiencing significant changes driven by digital transformation and evolving technology trends. Insurtechs are at the forefront, introducing innovative solutions that reshape risk analysis, claims notifications, and service delivery through digital channels. Premium growth is bolstered by insurtech investments in technologies like generative AI, which enhances risk assessment and contextual data utilization for personalized policies. Companies such as Tractable, Photocert, Mitiga, and Spotr exemplify augmented reality and virtual reality applications, offering replacement services and healthcare solutions that redefine the value proposition in insurance. The emergence of venture client models facilitates collaboration between incumbents and insurtechs, fostering combined value and accelerating digital innovation across the sector. As insurers adapt to these advancements, they are poised to improve customer experience and operational efficiency while navigating the complexities of modern risk landscapes.
The increasing adoption of cloud-based solutions is notably driving the Europe insurance technology market growth. Cloud systems are cost-effective for insurance companies, as software services can be used on a pay-per-use basis. Factors that drive the adoption of cloud-based solutions in the regional insurance industry are limited requirements for hardware infrastructure, less dependency on in-house IT personnel, and low maintenance costs. Some of these factors enable enterprises to focus on developing their core competencies. The growing acceptance of cloud-based insurance solutions may be attributed to their flexibility to scale up and down, depending on the company's requirements, high-speed deployment, and low upfront costs.
Moreover, some companies that provide cloud-based insurance solutions are Qover SA, Duck Creek Technologies, and Quantemplate. For instance, Duck Creek offers a SaaS solution, providing all services, support, and computing resources for insurance companies in Europe. Moreover, it enables organizations to access data and services remotely through a web browser without installing and managing the application software. It has a short implementation time, which further reduces the cost of implementation and improves the ROI. Cloud-based insurance solutions have multiple advantages when compared with traditional on-premises software. Therefore, the rising adoption of cloud-based solutions in the regional insurance industry is expected to augment the growth of the market in Europe during the forecast period.
The increasing collaborations between investors and insurance technology companies is a key trend influencing the Europe insurance technology market growth. Investors are demonstrating an increased interest in collaborating with insurance technology firms or technology-first insurance start-ups in the region. The importance of insurance technology is increasing at a rapid pace among insurance companies. In the next ten years, the entire insurance process is expected to become digital and will not require the involvement of any form of physical interference.
Moreover, the focus of insurance technology companies is on the growing consumer demand for the sophisticated customization of insurance products and personalized services. Insurance technology is about creating appropriate insurance coverage for an individual. The trend of purchasing insurance over an application is increasing in the region. Therefore, due to such factors, the market has witnessed an increase in investors' collaboration with insurance technology firms. For instance, in December 2020, simplesurance GmbH, a berlin-based insurance technology company, received around USD 18 million (EUR 15 million) as a convertible loan from Allianz X. Therefore, such investments is expected to augment the growth of the insurance technology market in Europe during the forecast period.
