Federato Hires First EMEA Sales Leader

It’s no secret that Federato has been increasing our presence outside the US: since January, we’ve popped up at ITC London, Insurtech Insights Europe, InSight Summit in Toronto, and more. And the response has been amazing! 

So amazing, in fact, that our team was having trouble keeping up…which is why we’re excited to announce that we’ve made our first full-time sales hire on the other side of the Atlantic. 

We’re very pleased to share that Ben Howell has recently joined Federato as our first sales leader for the EMEA region. Ben will focus full-time on insurers in the UK, Europe and the Middle East, allowing us to serve more customers in these regions and accelerate access to the Federato Platform outside the United States.

Based in London, Ben comes to us with a strong background in the European insurance market. Before starting at Federato, he was Director of Business Development at London market incumbent, AdvantageGo. Prior to that he managed technical change at Placing Platform Limited (PPL) and provided advisory and delivery services at r10 consulting.

Ben will be attending a number of events on behalf of Federato this year, including MENA InsurTech Summit in Doha (where he will be joining a panel to speak on “AI at work: Reinventing Commercial Insurance), ITC Europe in Amsterdam, Rendez-Vous de Septembre in Monte Carlo, and more (schedule a meeting here!).

We’re excited to grow in EMEA, and to meet so many interesting insurers around the globe. We’re building out our team in Europe, and we’re looking forward to connecting in 2025 and beyond!
