Beyond Boundaries | Israel’s Global Impact on Insurance Innovation

Spøtlight, Whitepaper : 5 minutes

Welcome back to the Beyond Boundaries interview series where we go deep into Israel’s global impact on insurance innovation.

In this episode, Sønr’s CEO Matt Connolly is joined by two key voices shaping the industry. Who better to hear from that Kobi Bendelak and Dr. Yael Benvenisti from Insurtech Israel 🙏

What begins as a spotlight on Israel quickly expands into a conversation on emerging markets, satellite data, global sandboxes, and the transformation of the insurance industry itself.

🎙️ In this episode:

  • What makes Israel one of the most dynamic Insurtech ecosystems in the world
  • How space tech, climate, AI, and biometric insurance are redefining the insurance landscape
  • The global expansion of Insurtech Israel—from Tel Aviv to Guatemala
  • Why Israeli startups are uniquely positioned to solve complex global challenges
  • Insights on partnering with incumbents, launching accelerators, and bridging the gap between innovation and enterprise

📍 What you’ll also hear:
From building local sandboxes with real data, to launching the next generation of Insurtech hubs in Latin America. Kobi and Yael share how their mission is no longer just national, but truly global.

🌍 This conversation dives into the deep links between innovation, infrastructure, and international collaboration – highlighting what it really takes to build a thriving insurance future across borders.

A big thanks to both Kobi and Yael for their time and valuable insights.

To delve deeper into the people and companies shaping global insurance innovation, the full Beyond Boundaries study will offer a comprehensive look at the ecosystem – featuring leading startups, investor trends, and insurer strategies. The report will officially launch at ITC Vegas this October, marking a key moment for the global insurtech community.
