Simplifying Cyber Risk- a conversation with Melanie Hayes, Co-Founder and COO of KYND
Description
This week on the We Are InsurTech Women podcast I had the huge pleasure of speaking with Melanie Hayes, co-founder and COO of KYND.
KYND has grown into a trusted partner for insurers, brokers, and businesses looking to manage cyber exposure proactively. The podcast is full of insights for anyone building in regulated or technical markets - especially if you're trying to make complex things feel simple.
Melanie talks us through:
🔹How Melanie went from leading European marketing at Experian to launching a cyber startup?
🔹 What was the moment that turned KYND from an idea into a real company?
🔹 How tough was that leap to becoming a founder on a personal level?
🔹 What exactly does KYND enable for both insurers and insureds - and why is visibility on both sides so important?
🔹 How does KYND simplify cyber risk?
🔹 What role has funding played in scaling the business - especially with KYND’s growing presence in the US?
