Our journey
Our Story Unfolded
Ashoka, leading social innovation organisation, & Ninety, the insurance innovation experts, have partnered to drive inclusive insurance forward.
We've co-authored a paper to deepen our understanding of inclusive insurance. We found key barriers to inclusive insurance that were either slowing insurers from taking action in this space or stopping them all together.
01. Overly reliant on expecting regulators to solve issues
02. Cultural barriers that are unique to each market and locality
03. A lack of understanding of how to design a social product
Our Solution
We tackle these barriers by igniting action and bringing in social entrepreneurs to train your employees
To address these barriers, we’ve created an 8-week idea development programme to empower employees to build inclusive insurance products and equip them with lifelong social innovation skills.
