John Harvey, Founder, CrashBay
John Harvey, the spark behind Insurtech Canada and CEO of CrashBay, is shaking up the insurance world with a dash of tech magic. Schooled at McMaster and Athabasca along with too many years in insurance, he’s turning traditional insurance on its head. With CrashBay, launched in 2019, he’s making car repairs less of a nightmare and more of a tech-savvy dream. Not just content with that, he’s also the life of the insurtech party with Insurtech Canada, where innovation meets laughter and big dreams. Under his lead, CrashBay’s not just surviving but thriving, thanks to a venture round with Markd VC. Navigating the venture capital space while courting carriers makes for some valuable lessons to be shared with early stage companies. John’s vision is for a future where insurance is as fun as it is functional!.
