Insurtech Embea has completed its seed funding round, gaining €4m ($4.3m) to build a pan-European embedded life insurance platform.

The funding round for Embea was led by Atlantic Labs, a Berlin-based seed fund, and astorya.vc, an expert in investing in European insurtech.

Embea is one of the first companies to utilise embedded insurance from covering gadgets to offering life insurance protection.

Also, instead of buying via brokers or a website, individuals and families can get protected through just a few clicks in non-insurance activities, like booking travel.

Furthermore, Embea will use the funding to expand its pan-European embedded life insurance platform and add products to the portfolio. The insurtech has the goal of becoming the first choice B2B platform for digital businesses active in multiple European markets.

Investor and founding partner of astorya.vc, Florian Graillot, expressed his enthusiasm and said: “Embea designed its software platform from the ground up for embedded distribution. Coupled with its innovative approach to developing lightweight, affordable insurance products inhouse, Embea marks a significant advancement in this space.”
