Wopta Assicurazioni, Italian phygital insurtech MGA, secured €12 mn in new funding through a club deal led by Belluzzo International Partners. The company also launched a €50 mn Series B round to support growth and expansion.

This follows a successful Series A round that included Holding B3 (Calzedonia Group), the Macchi family, and the Cammi family.

Wopta plans to use Series B funding for acquisitions in Italy and abroad to strengthen its position in the local market and expand in Europe.

Since its launch, the company has grown quickly, building a strong customer base and forming partnerships with organizations such as CNA, BeProf – Confprofessioni, HYPE, Banca Sella, and Switcho.
