Branch Insurance is one of the hottest Midwest startups, having recently raised a series A round of over $24 Million. Founded in 2017, Branch provides a technology and community-driven insurance that addresses many of the problems in insurance today. By leveraging community growth instead of traditional advertising, Branch passes the cost savings onto the customer. With plans to grow to 150 jobs in Columbus, Branch Insurance is on track to have a massive impact in our region. During this Startup Grind, we will be talking with Steve Lekas, Cofounder & CEO of Branch, about what it takes to scale an insurance company, the insurance market, and his journey to being a founder.
