In his new role, Watson will lead business development for the insurtech’s embedded insurance and marketplace propositions across the region, working with new and existing partners as well as intermediaries.
According to his LinkedIn, Watson has a proven track record of developing, pricing, and launching new markets, partnerships, insurance product lines and multinational programs.
