About Laura Bennett

https://www.chubb.com/uk-en/
Laura Bennett began her career in Toronto, Canada and Dublin, Ireland working for a Canadian life and health insurer where she worked as an actuary while discovering her talents at fixing and building areas in need. After 12 years, she left to get an MBA to stretch her wings outside of insurance. While there, she worked on a pet insurance company business plan out of curiosity, and upon graduation, co-founded Embrace Pet Insurance, a fully digital pet health insurance company, well before the word “Insurtech” existed. Laura Bennett was the CEO of Embrace for 14 years, leading the company through high growth, venture capital rounds, and three insurance partners. Embrace now stands as one of the most respected US pet insurers, having led the transformation of the pet insurance industry through product design, customer service, and 4 years of leadership of NAPHIA (the North American Pet Health Insurance Association.) She currently leads Chubb’s eConsumer unit that is building and developing Blink by Chubb, a digital brand aimed at millennials in North America. Laura Bennett is a big supporter of startups and female entrepreneurs through angel investing, board seats, advice, cheerleading, connecting, and being a shoulder to cry on and celebrate with. She has two daughters the same age as Embrace, 1 cat, and a part-time corgi. She is a highly-regarded business builder, strategist, and leader with over 20 years of experience in the specialty insurance consumer space. She uses her unique combination of entrepreneurial, customer-centric, and actuarial skills to build innovative and profitable consumer businesses and exceptional teams. Her passion lies in setting the vision and brand experience for target markets and assembling teams and creating productive, efficient environments to best implement that vision and brand experience. She is extremely adept at agile execution, rapidly building, testing, and refining the end-to-end customer experience, business growth, and operational models. She thrives on opportunities where she can join or build a high-performing, supportive executive team to create the future of insurance product experiences.
