To get to work with the extremely talented creatives hired before me really was the selling point. And of course – the opportunity to shape what hopefully becomes a world wide phenomenon.– Sofia Gustafsson, Art Director

John, Lucas and Fredrik – also known as the founders of Hedvig.
The founder story The journey with Hedvig started in 2017 while our CEO, Lucas, was working as a management consultant at McKinsey. He was sent to do a cost efficiency program for a big insurance company; and even though he knew almost nothing about insurance, he could feel that something wasn’t right.
He saw ordinary people getting treated as potential criminals, enduring onerous information requests and getting inadequate support in some of life’s most challenging situations – even though they’d been loyal customers for years.
So together with Fredrik and John, he launched Hedvig, which gave ordinary people access to an unheard of level of service within insurance, to the price of standard coverage – if not less. Unlike other insurance companies, we’re showing that it’s possible to remove the checklists, skip the fights over rights and wrongs, and totally embrace what we believe over what we can prove.
People ask us all the time if we’re an insurance company, if we’re a tech company, if we’re a startup. The answer to all of that is yes. But above all, we’re a service company – online, offline, or wherever people need us.
