Remarkable

About

The origins of Remarkable go back to a global competition that sparked the development of a solar powered wheelchair and an Australian first hackathon event called “Enabled by Design-athon” organised by Cerebral Palsy Alliance in 2014 in partnership with the University of Technology Sydney and FutureGov.

Telstra Foundation were in attendance at the design-athon and out of this came a partnership that started out as Life Labs and became known as Remarkable which launched in April 2016.

Remarkable is a division of Cerebral Palsy Alliance and is funded by icare NSW, Telstra Foundation, Microsoft, Smart Job, VivCourt and TPG Telecom Foundation.

Social Planet Ventures

Startups are super-tools to change the world. Let’s build stuff that matters. Social Planet Ventures invests in hyper-ambitious startups that want to address the world’s most pressing social challenges with solid and scaleable tech solutions. The reason is simple; We believe that in the future, some of the most valuable businesses will be those that deliver meaningful and positive social outcome for millions of people and for society at large – alongside their financial success. We search for companies with such a vision and can assist with setting a scaleable foundation in the initial and very fragile stage. Advancing social cohesion We want to invest in visionary founders with innovative superior tech solutions that strengthen social cohesion by addressing problems of inequality, marginalisation and exclusion; Education and re-skilling 20% or 50 million jobs in the European Workforce is expected to be automated by 2030. That will not lead to fewer jobs but to different types of jobs, which will require a massive re-skilling of our existing workforce to empower people to actively participate in our society. Preventive health and wellbeing By 2050, the share of people over 65 will be around 30%, compared to around 20% today. This will put a pressure on our welfare system. In EU today, we spend 3% of total public and private health care expenditures on preventive health. We expect to see wave of new ways to better detect and prevent people from getting sick to keep the same quality of care. Inclusive work-life With a shrinking workforce, we need to be much better at understanding and foster diversity, equity and inclusion to unlock the full potential of everyone. Closing the gender/skill gap in EU tech jobs alone has a potential of GDP increase of as much as €600 billion according to McKinsey. Sustainable living 100 million people in the EU is at risk of poverty or social exclusion. New technology can provide a foundation for more sustainable and inclusive communities that offers attractive careers, businesses, infrastructure, and living opportunities to secure a long-term resilient society. Inclusive financial services More than 30% of people in EU do not save for retirement because they can’t afford it. In average low-income households pays a Poverty Premium of up to €1,000 a year for essential products and services due to reasons that they cannot control, such as where they can afford to live. Open banking, blockchain and AI creates new opportunities and democratise access to financial services to create better societal resilience. About us Our investment team is based in Copenhagen and Stockholm. Alongside capital from pre-seed to Series A, we provide specialized support with product-market-impact fit, impact & ESG management, hiring and fundraising. We align ourselves with Article 9 SFDR and we measure the positive social impact of all our investments and base our compensation on the provided measurable impact.

SCOR Ventures

SCOR Ventures is the venture investment arm of SCOR Reinsurance, responsible for both investing in and creating partnerships with startups across the insurtech landscape. Since 2017 we have built a global portfolio across three theses: (1) investing in tech-driven underwriting companies (MGAs, carriers) and distributors, (2) software solutions that benefit SCOR and/or our clients, and (3) companies that help people live healthier lives. Our investment scope includes both investments and commercial (re)insurance relationships with startups. We predominantly invest at late Seed / Series A and are interested in a broad range of B2B and B2B2C solutions across MedTech, wellness, wearables, data platforms, and software / AI platforms. What we’re looking for We invest across three thesis areas: Thesis 1: we invest and partner in the ‘Insurers of the Future’: tech-driven underwriting companies (MGAs, carriers) that offer multiple points of digital and business model differentiation across P&C and L&H. We provide direct access to SCOR expertise and our global network to help portfolio companies scale and/or access (re)insurance capacity. With a proven track record of supporting innovative underwriting propositions across multiple lines of business, we understand product development, program structuring, underwriting, pricing and distribution and thus have the capabilities to optimise partnerships between insurtechs and business partners. We predominantly invest at late Seed / Series A. We are class of business agnostic and have partnered with companies across a broad variety of personal and specialty lines. Thesis 2: we invest and partner in software solutions that benefit SCOR and/or our clients. We provide a broad understanding of the interests and pain points of insurers across the world, and the potential to connect companies with insurers through SCOR’s client services initiatives. We predominantly invest later stage vs. Thesis 1 (typically Series A-B) but have occasional appetite for Seed. We prioritise companies: developing data, tools, and methods for obtaining, understanding, pricing and transferring large portfolios of pre-aggregated risks, high-value individual risks such as energy facilities and construction mega-projects, and MGA/coverholder business delivering economically valuable additional services offering a visible outcome which can be used to boost client management or reduce risks. Focus areas include front-end (e.g., underwriting & pricing) policy administration, modelling, risk analytics, and claims developing platforms where insurance has not previously been embedded / distributed, but where SCOR Ventures sees substantial opportunities to close the global protection gap – e.g., marketplaces, “super apps”, b2b fintech, employee benefits working to solve climate and ESG challenges to support the net zero transition and cut emissions for SCOR and SCOR clients. Focus areas include ESG reporting, climate risk analysis and data, carbon offsetting as a solution, circular economy, diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) tech, and supply chain transparency. We also see several opportunities in the green insurance product space including solar production or maintenance guarantees, wind input parametric products, solar physical asset damage, cat-bond / ILS and insuring carbon credit projects. Thesis 3: We invest at the intersection of health and technology and partner with companies that help people live healthier lives, deliver in-force or claims outcome improvements, develop new business or add to SCOR’s Knowledge Center capabilities, and assist our clients to transform their offerings. We predominantly invest at late Seed / Series A and are interested in a broad range of B2B and B2B2C solutions across MedTech, wellness, wearables, data platforms, and software / AI platforms. How we operateIntegrated in the wider SCOR business: Direct access to the entirety of SCOR’s capabilities brings unique added value to our portfolio companies. SCOR’s core business has experts in nearly every country, line of business, and functional area, while SCOR Partners bring a broad range of client services, marketing and product development expertise. Mandate: focused on key markets in North America, EMEA and LATAM, with selective deployment in APAC and Africa. Stage and ownership: We invest Seed to Series B. We typically seek greater than 5% ownership at first investment, which may include a board seat (we have led or co-led half of our investments to date). Our investment is intended to make SCOR a meaningful contributor but leave founders room to manage their cap table. We look for a long-term investment and / or commercial relationship but do not seek a fast exit or to ultimately acquire portfolio companies. Partnership approach: we are active supporters of the companies we work with, assisting with technical input, recruitment, capital optimisation and more. The material growth of many insurtech MGAs and carriers has led to increasing demand for (re)insurance capacity; SCOR is a transparent, long-term partner. Insurtechs in SaaS and services segments, meanwhile, have benefited from SCOR’s long-standing client relationships, while SCOR benefits from bringing knowledge, links, and expertise regarding services with genuine value to our clients. We bring value to our portfolio companies by connecting them with other partner companies, as well as with founders and distribution leads in our network. Why partner with SCOR VenturesWe believe in fewer, deeper relationships over the long term. We are flexible and collaborative in our approach, tailoring a solution to your specific needs, in partnership with other insurers, reinsurers, and investors involved in your company as appropriate. We underwrite most major lines of business and geographies globally. We have a global network including insurance licenses but not a competing retail insurance arm. Insurers are our clients, so working with us does not limit your options to associate with insurers. In selected circumstances, we can offer access to Lloyd’s or SCOR’s insurance licenses in the U.S., Europe, Asia, Brazil, South Africa, and other markets. We look to move quickly with direct access to decision makers, whilst leveraging resources and expertise to ensure our partners can build relationships with the appropriate parts of our organization.
