Let’s start at the beginning and we can move on from there. How did your company get started and why?
My co-founder Liz and I started Amelia Risk as we saw a gap in the industry – startups and emerging growth companies aren’t getting the true risk management help they need. Most founders and startups don’t understand their own risk, and we knew we could leverage the best technology out there and help provide a better experience for founders. We also knew there’s a need for women-owned insurance brokers and leaders in our industry, and we are ready to take that on.
What is your product and how would you describe it?
We’re risk advisors and insurance brokers – we help you identify your company’s unique risk, and then we customize an insurance program around that. We help you understand what you need, why you need it, and help you make the decision on what insurance you should have and when. We negotiate the best insurance coverage for the most competitive pricing. You can think of us as your outsourced risk management team.
How have you pivoted your business this year?
Definitely starting and running a business during a global pandemic. I suppose everyone’s dealing with that, so outside of that, I’d say marketing. It’s hard to focus on brand development and marketing when there are a million things to do.
What is your next challenge to overcome?
Hiring! And my business partner, our CEO, is having her third baby, so I’d say for her, finding a new balance while bringing a new family member in, and for me, managing things for the months she’s out on maternity leave.
What do you predict for the food industry over the rest of the year?
A lot more online marketplaces for small brands.
