Skyline Partners, a UK-based insurance technology firm, has revealed plans to launch its new weather insurance product to farmers in India.

Targeted at the underinsured markets, the technology-enabled Indian weather insurance product is expected to be launched by next year.

The offering has been developed by the company’s founders Gethin Jones and Laurent Sabatié. They spent the last year developing the product and believe that their product will offer affordable coverage for farmers in India.

Skyline Partners recently secured funding from innovation hub OneAdvent to expand its business.
