Travelers: in-depth intelligence creating new opportunities

With a well established innovation function, Travelers approached Sønr wanting help to identify and assess startups relevant to specific business challenges, opportunities and use cases. Whilst the bulk of this would be insurance-related, it was critical whoever Travelers partnered with were able to scout adjacent industries and technologies also.

After a number of discussions, what attracted Travelers to Sønr was a combination of the data on 3+ million companies at our fingertips coupled with a team of world-class researchers, each of whom have vast industry expertise.

Data-driven insight driving open innovation

Travelers are passionate about open innovation and identifying the right startups to partner with, invest into or acquire. Sønr is fortunate enough to play a key role in helping them do this.
