Belem

Belem is a specialty insurance brokerage based in Paris, France, serving technology companies across professional liability, cyber, executive liability, and related lines. Founded in 2025, the firm works exclusively within the tech sector, covering SaaS companies, fintech firms, crypto projects, Web3 ventures, engineering service companies, AI companies, edtech and greentech platforms, and VC funds operating in France and the broader European market.

The brokerage uses proprietary AI tools to analyze insurance contracts, compare coverage across the market, and surface gaps in existing policies. This automation allows Belem to deliver policy proposals within 24 hours, versus the industry standard of several weeks. As of May 2026, the company had reached 200 or more clients while remaining bootstrapped and profitable.

Belem was co-founded by Segolene Mouterde (CEO), formerly an early employee at fintech firm Lydia and co-founder of HR platform Teamstarter (which raised EUR 7M and was acquired in 2023), and Philippe Mangematin, a former actuary with prior roles at Milliman and Swiss Re who previously co-founded Seyna Assurances and Stoik.
