Sheffield telematics firm The Floow goes continental as they expand in Switzerland

Sheffield telematics organisation The Floow have appointed insurance expert Dario Aliotta to develop their international business strategy across West and Central Europe.

The Floow develop telematics solutions that capture and analyse data relating to driver behaviour. Collected through devices such as smart phone applications this data can then be used by insurers to reward their customers for safer driving.

The company, which works on behalf of leading insurers including AIG, NIG and Green Flag across Europe, Canada and North America, recently announced a 15% investment from Direct Line Insurance Group plc.

With staff already based in Italy and France, Dario (pictured right) will deliver The Floow services to insurers, road side assistance organisations and fleet management companies across Switzerland, Germany and Austria.

Dario, who will be based in Winterhur, Switzerland, previously worked with leading global reinsurer Swiss Re.

He has more than 27 years of experience in the reinsurance and insurance industry, during which he has led various Client Management teams, including a business unit abroad for Swiss Re.

Aldo Monteforte, chief executive officer and co-founder of The Floow, said: “We are delighted to welcome Dario to the team as we continue to grow the company overseas.

“We are currently in contact with a number of European insurers who are interested in our work, after seeing the results of that a telematics offering has had for the various international insurers that we work with. Dario’s appointment now allows us to further develop our reach across Europe.”

Dario said: “I admire the work of the Floow, and recognise the benefits that telematics solutions can offer to insurers and their customer base.

“I am very pleased to be working with the team to make more companies across Europe aware of the impact that greater driver awareness can have from a road safety perspective, as well as an economic perspective.”
