Sondre Rasch
Sondre Rasch is the Norwegian co-founder and CEO of SafetyWing, a Y Combinator-backed insurtech building a global social safety net for remote workers and digital nomads. Starting from a teenage web hosting business run through an online video game community, he studied economics at NHH Bergen, served as a sniper in the Norwegian Army, advised the Norwegian government on social policy, and co-founded Superside before launching SafetyWing in 2018. SafetyWing has raised $46.6M (including a $35M Series B in 2022) and generates over $34M in annual revenue serving tens of thousands of customers across 180+ countries. His ultimate ambition is to build 'a country on the internet' - a software-based welfare system and digital nation called Plumia.
