Lab activity

Primary focus product area whilst in the Accelerator: Climate change/ decarbonisation 

Kita was originally planning on creating a parametric insurance product for the voluntary carbon market. Through its experience in the Lab it created its first product, Carbon Purchase Protection Cover, one of the first voluntary carbon market insurance products in the market. 

​“Lloyd’s Lab was hugely beneficial to Kita in terms of helping create strong connections and partnerships within the Lloyd’s market, where innovative products like carbon insurance can find a home.”
Natalia Dorfman, Chief Executive Officer and Co-Founder
