Our mission

We redefine the insurance industry

signals is the innovation hub of the SIGNAL IDUNA Group, one of Germany’s leading insurers. We provide the platform to develop new business ideas, assess the impact of new technologies on the insurance industry, and partner with startups. For us, progress and consistency go hand in hand. We see ourselves as a catalyst. We have to break new ground to create something that has yet to be there. Courageous and full of drive, we want to work with you to redefine the status quo!

What we do

How to work with us

Exploring future technologies, we analyze and evaluate their impact on the insurance industry and our society.

At the forefront of innovation

To find answers to the questions of tomorrow, we need different perspectives. That is why we are always interested in networking with tech- and industry experts, futurologists or universities. Collaborating could include exchanges, research, joint projects, events, or white papers.

GenAI and Web3

Generative AI’s potential in the insurance industry is massive. No other topic better illustrates exponential growth and technological progress. Together with the respective business units and our strategic partner Google, we have helped build and scale two strong internal use cases: a Gemini-based chatbot to increase employee productivity and an AI agent for the health insurance service team to respond to customer queries more quickly.

What’s the potential of the metaverse, and how did it change during the last few years? Is it a market worth billions or just hype? These are only some of the questions we have been diving deeper into when looking at the web3 space.

Whether it's a standard insurance for your company or employees, embedding insurance in your product, or the joint development of new business models – we’ve got you covered.

We are your safety net

Founding your own business is exciting and fun but it also comes with stress, uncertainty, and hurdles to overcome. Proper insurance coverage is vital in mitigating potential risks – let us be your security guard.

Together, we create new business solutions

Insurance can be integrated into many value chains - resulting in even better services for your customers. Let's explore together what new business models we can build.

Case Study: Vay Technology GmbH

Vay is the first company to teledrive cars on public roads without a person inside, in Europe and the US. Not only did signals Venture capital invest in the firm, SIGNAL IDUNA also insures the teledriven cars in Germany.

Using our Venture Client approach, we are looking for solutions in enterprise architecture, data analytics, and value-added services to offer our customers the best possible experience.

About SIGNAL IDUNA

Its product portfolio ranges from health, life, and property to liability insurance. By integrating new technologies and solutions, SIGNAL IDUNA generates growth and aims to offer the best service to its customers. In doing so, the group relies on its own innovations and collaboration with strong digital partners on the market.

What startups are we looking for?

Positive news: We're a large corporation with many chances to become our supplier. To mention two: We always strive to boost the efficiency of our processes and align them closely with our business goals. Hence, enterprise architecture solutions are always of interest. In times of GenAI, a good database becomes even more crucial. That's why we seek data preparation, processing, and evaluation solutions.
