Encouraging groundbreaking ideas in the insurance and fintech landscapes, Allianz Turkey has officially opened applications for the 6th season of its HackZone Open Innovation Program. The initiative focuses on fostering collaboration and developing innovative solutions in areas such as financial advisory, digital health, contact center technologies, and agentic artificial intelligence. Start-ups interested in transforming the future of insurance can submit their applications until January 19.
Since its first launch in 2020, the HackZone Program has served as a major innovation hub, encouraging entrepreneurs to co-create new technological approaches alongside Allianz’s experts. In partnership with Tenity, the program strengthens the Turkish start-up ecosystem by providing access to mentorship, financial grants (up to 500,000 TL per project), technical resources such as Allianz APIs, and training programs. Participants also gain valuable exposure to potential investors and industry professionals.
Through the program, start-ups have the opportunity to develop their Proof of Concept projects with Allianz Turkey’s professional teams. The organization’s inclusive environment encourages knowledge transfer, supporting ventures in refining their business models and scaling their innovations. A wide range of resources ensures that participating start-ups can transition from early prototypes to market-ready solutions effectively.
Over 590 start-ups have been reviewed under the HackZone Program to date, with 46 ventures selected for direct collaboration. Allianz Turkey has partnered with more than 40 of these ventures, accelerating their progress and helping 26 companies engage with the insurance sector for the first time. These collaborations have not only advanced technological innovation but also attracted significant investments—start-ups emerging from the program have collectively secured over $15.5 million from the ecosystem.
Applications for the new HackZone season can be submitted through Allianz Turkey’s official platform. Visionary start-ups ready to redefine the insurance experience are invited to apply and become part of this forward-thinking innovation journey.
