Euan King Joins Instanda to Lead Business Development

Emphasis on North American market recognizes move of insurers away from core system replacement toward projects more focused on digital enablement and customer experience


HARTFORD, Conn., May 09, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Instanda, provider of a cloud-based, digital ecosystem for property and casualty (P&C) insurance, is pleased to announce industry software veteran Euan King has joined the company’s management team as Executive Vice President of Business Development.

King’s entire career has focused on building world-class companies, with nearly 40 years of experience in technology and software supporting the P&C insurance industry in the U.S., Canada, the U.K., continental Europe, and South Africa. His extensive leadership experience for global organizations spans executive and operations management, business development, sales, marketing, and professional services. His most recent success came as a member of the global leadership team and president of 1insurer, where he was the company’s COO prior to being promoted to president.

“The way insurance companies evaluate, purchase, implement, and utilize technology has changed,” said Tim Hardcastle, Instanda CEO. “Euan’s deeply engaged in the InsurTech movement and knows the needs of today’s modern insurers. He’s an asset to launching our U.S. business.”

Before joining 1insurer (formerly Innovation Group), King was SVP and general manager at Huon Corporation in North America, which he joined after leaving leadership positions with IBM first in the U.K. and then in the U.S. He is a graduate of the University of the Witwatersrand in Johannesburg where he earned a B.A. in English, History, and Economic History.

"The energy in the insurance marketplace is so positive,” said King. “I love having the opportunity to help insurers move beyond the traditional thoughts and processes around legacy technology. Instanda creates a world of opportunity for risk providers, removing complexity, and decoding the process of increasing revenue.”
