In addition, Lokky is natively ready to be integrated by external partners, both digital and physical.
Lokky, the Italian Insurtech company dedicated to small businesses, professionals, and freelancers, has closed its equity crowdfunding campaign on Mamacrowd with a raise of about €2.6 million, as part of a total capital increase of €2.9 million. With this latest transaction, Lokky reaches the threshold of €5 million euros raised since its inception. Alongside more than 200 investors, the funding also saw the entry of the AZIMUT ELTIF – Venture Capital ALIcrowd II fund.
The capital will be invested to consolidate Lokky’s positioning in Italy and accelerate its growth, enhance branding and expand its offerings with exclusive products. In fact, Lokky’s strategy is to introduce next-generation insurance products to the market that are digitally native and, above all, integrated with the proprietary algorithm.
“We are literally in love with the world of insurance and believe that our work has a long-term social and economic impact: improving the level of coverage of small businesses means making the entire country system more resilient and competitive against risks that are increasingly increasing in frequency and magnitude; just think of cyber risks, seismic and hydrogeological risks, pandemic risks, and even those related to the geopolitical situation.” Said Paolo Tanfoglio, Co-founder and CEO of Lokky.

Thanks to innovative technologies in the area of Smart Analytics and Data Enrichment, with the proprietary algorithm optimized in recent years, Lokky offers only the most suitable coverages for individual needs, through total customization of the available products, eliminating unnecessary guarantees and related costs.
“Now we are ready to continue transforming the insurance industry, supporting more and more businesses, especially the smallest ones, professionals and freelancers, through a tailored offer and creating more and more innovative solutions adapted to today’s working reality,” added Sauro Mostarda, Co-founder and CEO of Lokky.
