Who’s Leading the Insurtech Talk in August?

The amount raised by insurtechs in Q2 2018 is $603M which is just slightly higher than the $597M raised in Q1 2018, according to data provided by Venture Scanner. But even though funding is 17% lower in the first half of 2018 compared to the first half of 2017, insurtech remains a hot topic and here’s the proof.

The graph represents a network of 738 Twitter users whose recent tweets contained "insurtech - (minus) fintech", or who were replied to or mentioned in those tweets, taken from a data set limited to a maximum of 18.000 tweets.  The network was obtained from Twitter on Monday, 13 August 2018 at 21:18 UTC.

The tweets in the network were tweeted over the 12-hour, 11-minute period from Monday, 13 August 2018 at 09:00 UTC to Monday, 13 August 2018 at 21:12 UTC.
