Founded in 2021, Stoïk is Europe’s leading insurtech dedicated to cyber risk, with the ambition of becoming the CISO of Europe. The company was created to address a structural gap: while cyber threats have become one of the biggest risks for businesses, most existing solutions remain fragmented, overly technical, or designed only for large enterprises.
The company has built a 360° cyber risk protection model that integrates cyber insurance, continuous risk prevention, detection, and in-house incident response teams, increasingly powered by proprietary AI technologies. This approach allows Stoïk to support companies before, during, and after a cyberattack, helping them maintain operations, reduce financial losses, and recover faster.
Backed by €70m+ in funding from top-tier investors (a16z, Alven, Munich Re), Stoïk protects more than 12,000 companies across Europe, works with over 2,000 broker partners, and operates in six European countries including France, Germany, Spain, Belgium, Austria, and Netherlands, supported by a fast-growing international team of specialists.
