After 20+ years in the tech sector, from RFID to Supply Chain to Advertising (adtech), with multiple successful exits to both International and Public Listed companies. I have turned my mind to expanding horizons and focused on developing an International Business portfolio in the epicentre of global finance ~ London. The insurance industry (fintech) is the next deep blue. The industry is undergoing a metamorphosis, with an unprecedented scale of innovation taking place. New technologies represent opportunities to re-think legacy systems, that for the most part have been taken for granted as the way things must be done, rather than what could be done… What’s on offer is a potential ‘Value Chain Collapse’ that will materially create tens of millions (if not hundreds) of dollars of value by combatting fraud instances, money laundering and making old 20th Century systems redundant.CEO & promises my family it's my last startup ;) @ Everledger provides an immutable ledger for diamond identification and transaction verification for various stakeholders, from insurance companies to claimants and law enforcement agencies. Everledger provides new methods of financing and insuring diamonds, as well as combatting fraud, by providing an application for various stakeholders in the diamond pipeline.

We work alongside crime agencies to assist in the identification of cross border transactions, money laundering and counterfeit goods. Leanne has over 20 years in emerging technology in supply chain (RFID) and ten years in jewellery, diamonds and insurance claim.

The team brings together a diverse and highly complementary set of skills from three continents to embark on a challenging mission at a time when the FinTech and Insurance sectors are undergoing a technological metamorphosis. Our application combats fraud by providing an improved interface and api service for various stakeholders in the insurance ecosystem which is in need of a ‘Single Version of the Truth’. Fraudulent claims (identified by analysing transactions & other behavioural patterns) overlaid on core data can elucidate the recovery of items which identify the sale of stolen valuables. This is useful to the industry in reducing claims leakage and combating cross border transactions.
