This was the case with Bria this week: Nion confirmed the agreement with investors that generated an investment of appx. US$ 300,000, in a negotiation that also included the company's intellectual capital contribution and global network to expand to more countries in near future.

According to Thiago Soares, Latam CEO of Nion, the expectation is that, in up to three years, Bria will reach the valuation of US$ 10 million, being among the main insurtechs of underwriting intelligence and digital experience in the personal insurance space.

“Bria has its own development team, health specialists and insurance professionals who support the platform and a 100% digital experience that produces risk assessment and underwriting insights, and customer engagement algorithms”, details Soares. "We currently have more than 10 insurance agents involved in our digital underwriting, customer engagement and health-intelligence projects."

For Joseph Kulmann, managing partner of Bria, Soares' vast knowledge, combined with Nion’s vision on insurance innovation, were two main differentiations that led to this partnership. "The technical vision, the vast market experience together with the vision of innovation that has generated many important contributions for us", he says.
