Thereafter 10 participants will be shortlisted to pitch their solutions to Santam based on their solutions’ applicability to insurance, as well as originality or competitiveness.

Other criteria that will be considered include the time it will take to pilot or implement the product with Santam, as well as the startups’ track record.
