Coya is a Berlin-based insurtech firm that operates on a straightforward business model, is designed to be "affordable, transparent, and easily accessible," and one that testifies to the vigor and dedication of older entrepreneurs.
The start-up started to make its mark on the industry in late 2018. The business was founded by Peter Hagen -- the former chief executive of Vienna Insurance Group, who is collaborating with a former executive from Allianz SE. Both businessmen were 59 when the insurtech firm was launched and both utilize their sizable experience in the insurance industry as a catalyst for their business adventure.
As a company, Coya is flexible, "providing one of the best deals on the market" and offering a cancellation policy that comes without any consequences and can be enforced at any time.
