InsurTechAppointments

Insurwave, a tech platform for specialty insurance which starred on our InsurTech 50 ranking late last year, has appointed Premal Gohil as CFO.

With a career spanning insurance, technology, and corporate strategy, Gohil has held leadership roles at Beazley and Liberty Mutual, where he led innovation partnerships, investments, and corporate development initiatives. 

Earlier in his career, he was a senior leader at PwC, specialising in helping (re)insurance businesses scale and achieve operational efficiency.

London-based Insurwave says his expertise will play a key role in supporting Insurwave’s mission to deliver accuracy, visibility, and efficiency in risk management, while empowering businesses to consolidate data and navigate complex challenges.

“The opportunity to contribute to a company that is transforming the industry through its market-leading offering is incredibly exciting. I look forward to working with David and the team to achieve our bold ambitions, unlock new opportunities, and create lasting value for our clients and partners.”
