French health insurance startup Alan is making a historic move by expanding into Canada. It’s the first new health insurance company to launch in the country since 1957. Alan treats health insurance as a software-as-a-service product, offering a subscription-first approach optimized with technology. Known for its innovative claim management system and additional services, like doctor consultations and preventive care, Alan aims to enhance customer satisfaction.
With an OFSI license in hand, Alan plans to hire 50 employees in Canada and onboard one customer per week starting in January 2025. Alan’s CEO, Jean-Charles Samuelian-Werve, envisions the company becoming a global player in the insurance space.
