Lloyd’s Lab accelerator

Accelerating innovation in the insurance industry

The Lloyd's Lab facilitates an InsurTech accelerator programme which aims to help innovative ideas gain traction and success in our market. Located in the heart of the world’s specialist insurance market, the Lloyd’s Lab provides access to a coworking space in the iconic building and the chance to develop their ideas with guidance from experienced insurance professionals.

Over ten weeks, start-ups, scale-ups, and sometimes mature companies, are given the unique opportunity to develop a new product for the Lloyd's market in a focused environment.

As a 330 year-old insurance market, we want to share our centuries of collective experience and knowledge with game changing InsurTechs who have new ways of thinking. We’ll give you access to the market so you can develop products, platforms and processes to help transform the Lloyd’s market.
