Overview

7Analytics is a climate risk analytics company founded in Bergen, Norway, that combines expertise in hydrology, geology, and data science to deliver high-resolution flood risk predictions at the individual building level. The company was founded by four geoscientists and engineers with backgrounds in offshore oil and gas exploration, who recognized that asset owners, insurers, and city planners needed far more specific predictions to prepare for flooding events.

Unlike traditional flood risk assessments that operate at zip-code level, 7Analytics provides building-level predictions with resolution down to 1x1 meter areas. The company's technology analyzes more than 600 physical characteristics of buildings and their surroundings, fed into advanced machine learning models trained on verified insurance claims data. A unique dataset was developed through multiple years of R&D collaboration with Fremtind Insurance, activating data from their one million pluvial flood policies.

7Analytics operates across four continents with offices in Bergen (headquarters), Boston, Oslo, and Copenhagen. CEO Helge Jorgensen relocated to Boston to establish the company's U.S. operations, using Greentown Labs as an entry point into the North American market. The company serves insurance carriers, reinsurers, banks, infrastructure owners, and city planners with tools for risk pricing, claims prevention, business continuity planning, and parametric insurance applications.
