Announcing our investment in The Demex Group ⛈ The nature of storms has fundamentally evolved. Climate change (among other factors) has led to an increase in the frequency and severity of not only headline-grabbing catastrophic weather events like hurricanes and wildfires but also secondary perils (e.g. tornadoes, thunderstorms, hail and wind), which are now responsible for the majority of insured losses in the US. While insurers and reinsurers have utilized complex catastrophic risk models to maintain a functioning risk transfer model for lower frequency, high severity weather events like earthquakes and hurricanes (i.e., primary perils), the reinsurance market for more frequent secondary perils has deteriorated in recent years. Enter The Demex Group, a unique stop-loss risk transfer solution that prices secondary peril reinsurance risk and settles corresponding claims. When we first met William Clark and the Demex team, we immediately recognized the founder-market fit. Demex’s management has a level of domain expertise rarely seen in early-stage startups and we believe it is a true differentiator in their positioning. MetaProp is thrilled to participate in Demex's $10M Series A alongside Blue Bear Capital, Congruent Ventures, and Moxxie Ventures. 💡 Read more about why we invested from Zak Schwarzman here: https://lnkd.in/e5x_8RT6 #PropTech

Section two of my extensive interview with Brendan Wallace is out today. In this segment we discuss the genesis of our accelerator program and the emergence of our first fund almost ten years ago.
The story of how Zach Aarons and MetaProp established New York City's largest proptech accelerator: In the early 2010s, New York City was experiencing significant growth in various tech sectors like fin-tech, ad-tech, and ed-tech. (Also called "hyphen-tech.") Startup activity was flourishing, but real estate was being left behind... Zach and the MetaProp team founded their firm in 2014 with the goal of recreating this energy for the real estate technology ecosystem. Since then, MetaProp's Accelerator Program has focused on providing early-stage proptech companies with mentorship, industry connections, and guidance on go-to-market strategies tailored to the real estate industry. They didn't set out to be generalists like Y Combinator or Techstars—they focused exclusively on real estate. Today, their accelerator is an integral part of the proptech ecosystem, because they know exactly what they are...and what they aren't. #realestate #proptech

Thank you Zak Schwarzman and MetaProp for supporting The Demex Group's mission to address the property insurance crisis caused by climate change. By enabling P&C carriers to transfer some of their ever-increasing retained weather risk, we’re helping mitigate insures’ cost pressures that drive skyrocketing rates and elimination of coverage for business and home property owners. Working with MetaProp and our other investor partners – Blue Bear Capital, Congruent Ventures, and Moxxie Ventures – will enable us to make a real difference.
