Our values
Our values shape every decision we make and are demonstrated by all colleagues:
Our Journey
Apollo was launched in 2009 to provide clients and brokers an agile and entrepreneurial insurance partner. The Apollo name recognised the success of one of its founding investors Neil Armstrong, who in 1969 was the first person to walk on the moon. The founders, including Neil Armstrong, Jim Hays and remaining senior Executives Nick Jones and Simon White, saw the opportunity to provide a differentiated offering.
Today, Apollo is a team of more than 300 colleagues, servicing clients, partners and brokers from across the globe through its unique augmented underwriting approach.
We continue to expand into new areas to best service our clients, creating meaningful opportunities for today and in future.
With the support of Neil Armstrong, our founders form Apollo 1969, a then property syndicate.
Apollo becomes its own managing agent to grow and diversify its offering.
Apollo gains approval to launch ibott 1971 – Insuring Businesses of Tomorrow Today – our digital and embedded risk programmes syndicate.
Apollo launches its managing agency services through Strategic Partner Syndicates.
Following Alchemy’s significant capital backing, Apollo forms Apollo Group.
