Overview

ALICIA is a Dutch insurtech company specializing in Insurance-as-a-Service (IaaS), enabling digital businesses to seamlessly embed insurance products into their own customer journeys. Founded in 2019 by Marijn Moerman (CEO) and Richard Arnold (CTO), ALICIA was born from the recognition that traditional insurers could not move fast enough to serve the evolving needs of the gig economy and modern digital platforms. The company launched with usage-based insurance for Temper, a Dutch platform for freelance shift workers, and has since expanded to serve 200,000+ insured individuals across 6 European markets.

ALICIA operates through two regulated entities -- Alicia Insurance B.V. and Alicia MGA B.V. -- both supervised by the Dutch Authority for the Financial Markets (AFM). The company holds MGA agreements with 10+ international risk carrier partners including AIG, HDI, Chubb, and MS Amlin, enabling it to develop and distribute tailored digital insurance products through partner platforms. ALICIA describes their philosophy as "Go digital, stay human," emphasizing digital convenience paired with quality customer support.

In late 2023, the company raised EUR 7 million in seed funding from Volta Ventures, Randstad Innovation Fund, and Achmea Innovation Fund to fuel expansion across Europe and grow its product portfolio.
