"Quesnay's Female Founders in Tech 2018 innovation competition series will kick off with a dedicated insurance track to address the gap among women leaders by recognizing and supporting women-led startups that positively impact the industry," said
"Innovation at Farmers® is driven by our ongoing commitment to customer experience, which is why we are excited to be presenting sponsor of the 2018 Female Founders in Tech competition," said
"We are proud to again support the Female Founders in Tech competition and the partnership and investment opportunities it is providing for women who are positively impacting our industry," said
InsureTech Connect will host the final event as part of its 2018 conference where five finalists will present their startups to a live audience of judges. "We are honored to lend a stage to the program," said
"At Liberty Mutual we believe that success happens when you are open to engaging with all people and possibilities, which is why we are very excited to partner with Quesnay on the Female Founders in Tech program to help foster an environment for women-led startups in the insurance industry," said
For Quesnay, mentorship and partnership opportunities are critical components of the program given that 48 percent of female founders cite a lack of mentorship as an impediment to success. Underscoring the importance of knowledge-sharing, the five finalists will be coached by world-renowned industry leaders and build their insurance knowledge via a customized training course. At the end of the four-month competition, following the final event, the finalists will have the opportunity to partner with Quesnay's corporate sponsors.
"The best innovations reflect the diversity of the markets they serve," said
By participating, sponsors, judges, mentors and applicants will be invited to join Quesnay's growing community of innovation thought leaders.
"Quesnay's Female Founders in Tech program gives women-led startups the platform and exposure that they deserve, while also creating a community that is passionate about supporting women-led startups in the insurance industry," added
