“Embroker is a true innovator in the insurtech space that passionately believes, as I do, in developing products with the customer at the very center of that framework. They are radically simplifying the process of obtaining industry-tailored commercial insurance, and I’m excited to bring an even deeper focus on streamlining and delivering magical experiences for Embroker’s customers.”
In addition to hiring Spagnuolo, Embroker recently “introduced its new malpractice and cyber bundle for law firms – the first vertical offering built on the ONE by Embroker platform.”
