This week new host Charlotte Gregory is joined by Melissa Collett, the first-ever CEO of Insurtech UK and someone whose 25-year career spans law, the Financial Ombudsman, Fairer Finance, the CII, and now leading Insurtech UK.


In this conversation, Melissa shares:


✅ What building a role — and an organisation — from scratch feels like

✅ Why founders and trade body leaders have more in common than you'd think

✅ The real stats behind gender parity in Insurtech, including the gap in equity investment and funding for female-led AI startups

✅ The sponsor who changed the trajectory of her career, and what real allyship looks like in practice

✅ Her honest advice for anyone — especially women — considering a move into Insurtech


It's a conversation about building something new, taking risks, and why representation still matters, even when the numbers are moving in the right direction.
