Meeri Savolainen, the CEO, and co-founder of INZMO, Berlin-headquartered InsurTech, spoke to Rudolf Falat, founder of the Voice of FinTech podcast, about creative solutions for tenants being asked to pay a rental deposit and house contents insurance which is not only easy when a client is being onboarded, but also when they make a claim.

Here is what they covered:

Meeri's background - why become an entrepreneur in InsurTech?
Inzmo and a previous foray into insurance with Bike ID – why pivot?
What is INZMO, and what problems are you solving?
Why is there much demand for InsurTechs’solutions – i.e., why are traditional insurance offerings losing traction with millennials /gen Z?
Who are your key clients? Many companies these days talk about customer centricity. What does it mean for you?
Where are you based? How does the Berlin startup scene compare to that of Tallinn?
How do you make money? What is your business model?
2022 has been a tough year, and many countries face a cost-of-living crisis. Why rental deposit alternatives are needed, and where do you fit in?
It’s unfortunately still evident that even in 2022, we have a gender funding gap, and there is a gender imbalance worldwide. How has it shaped the way you run your startup?
What are plans for your business going forward, scaling ambitions?
