  Megan Bingham-Walker on Founding Anansi, Investor Bias, and Solving One Problem Really Well

  Sep 8, 202628 min

  ️ NEW EPISODE: We Are InsurTech Women This week Charlotte Gregory is joined by Megan Bingham-Walker, co-founder and CEO of Anansi, for her first ever in-person podcast recording. From government energy policy to venture capital to machine learning to an e-commerce business selling stainless steel straws, Megan's path to insurtech was anything but conventional. In this conversation, Megan shares: ✅ How selling stainless steel straws online exposed her to a huge gap in small business insurance — and led her to found Anansi ✅ Why she chose to focus Anansi on one problem, shipping insurance, rather than spreading across a diverse product range — despite people calling it "niche" (it's a $60bn market) ✅ The hard data behind female founders and venture capital, and why "restrictive vs. expansive" investor questioning, not a pipeline problem, is the real barrier ✅ A genuine allyship story, starting with a cold email to one of Anansi's earliest investors ✅ How her team has upskilled to build their own AI agents, and why she sees AI as an opportunity rather than a threat   It's a conversation about staying laser-focused on a single problem, the systemic issues still holding back female founders, and why normalising failure might be the insurance industry's next big cultural shift.

  Caroline "Caz" Taylor on Neurodiversity, Hustle, and Building From the Ground Up

  Sep 1, 202643 min

  ️ NEW EPISODE: We Are InsurTech Women This week Charlotte Gregory is joined by Caroline "Caz" Taylor, Chief Insurance and Delegated Authority Officer at Crux Underwriting — whose route into the C-suite ran through claims, law, startups and two boardrooms, and who only recently discovered why she's always worked that way. In this conversation, Caz shares: ✅ The accidental interview that changed everything — including the ultimatum from a colleague that got her through the door ✅ How growing up in a socially disadvantaged household shaped the hustle and resilience she still relies on today ✅ Why her ADHD, dyslexic, autistic "3D brain" thrives in cross-functional, ground-up roles — and struggles in a narrow one ✅ Why claims is one of the best entry points into a career in insurance ✅ Her views on AI in recruitment, and how rigid screening criteria can quietly filter out brilliant people   It's a conversation about turning a non-traditional background into a superpower, why insurance needs more people who think differently, and what leaders should really be asking about diversity, equity and hiring.
