Insight into Zego and how much it has raised?

Zego is the London-based InsurTech startup which was founded by two former directors of the Deliveroo, Britain’s largest food delivery company. While they were working for Deliveroo, they came across several problems of gig workers. One of the problems gig workers were facing that time was that they had to purchase an insurance policy to work for the Deliveroo and since there wasn’t any dedicated InsurTech company for gig workers, they had to pay a large amount to get rewarded with insurance. To eliminate this deep-rooted problem, Sten Saar and Harry Franks developed an Insurance mobile app and deployed their very inexpensive insurance service for the gig workers and even for the fleet owners.2 years ago, in its series A of the funding round, Zego has raised £6 million from Balderton Capital and Local Globe. Recently, they have raised more $42 million in their series B of the funding round. This is one of the largest funding rounds for a Europe-based InsurTech startup. According to the CEO of the Zego, they will use this amount to expand their business processes across Europe and to hire more staff.
