Search for a new generation of insurance is getting stronger

Continuing to support innovative business models and projects, initiating Hackzone Allianz Open Insurance Program with the aim to improve and enhance cooperation with startups, Allianz Turkey opened the APIs to startups. Hackzone Allianz Open Insurance, a marathon program where startups will do design-oriented thinking and coding for 10 days, will be open for application from https://hackzoneinsurance.com/ until November 9. Within the scope of the program implemented in cooperation with Hackquarters, the venture acceleration and corporate innovation partner of Allianz, the project ideas of startups within the themes on the website they will apply for and they will share using Allianz APIs will be evaluated. Hackquarters will share this call on its own network in the program, which is open to all startups. After the preliminary evaluation, the shortlisted startups will be provided with 10-day training and mentoring support by Hackquarters teams as well as Allianz employees and senior managers. The winning teams in the final to be held on December 14 will be presented with the opportunity for PoC (pilot study for their projects) with Allianz.

Allianz Turkey’s Information Technologies Deputy General Director Evren Ayorak stated that: “Our sector has a great potential for startups. With the program, we aim to carry the innovation needed in insurance forward. We plan to cooperate with startups that identify and work on an important problem or an important need in the insurance industry and can develop usable and applicable products using Allianz APIs to create a new market and solution.” Allianz Turkey Marketing and Digital Insurances Assistant General Manager Onur Kırcı expressed that the program offers startups the opportunities to meet with Allianz, Allianz network, PoC and cooperation as well as the Allianz Group’s digital investment company Allianz X.
