What Sapiens does
Sapiens International Corporation N.V. is a Dutch-domiciled insurance software company founded in 1982, providing core policy administration, claims, billing, and digital engagement platforms to Property & Casualty, Life & Pensions, and Reinsurance insurers across 38 countries. Its product portfolio includes IDITSuite (P&C), CoreSuite (Life & Pensions), SCIPSuite (SME insurance), DianaSuite, DigitalSuite, DataSuite, Sapiens Decision, and the AdvantageGo Underwriting Workbench, all built on a cloud-native architecture leveraging Microsoft Azure with embedded agentic AI, low-code/no-code configuration tools, and an API Conductor (ACE) integration layer connecting 70+ insurtech partners.
The company operates an enterprise SaaS subscription model with quote-based annual pricing, complemented by professional services for implementation, integration, data migration, testing, and training. Distribution combines direct regional enterprise sales teams with system integrator partners (Deloitte, Capgemini, CGI). Sapiens was taken private by Advent International in December 2025 for $2.5 billion at $43.50 per share, and received a significant minority investment from a subsidiary of Abu Dhabi Investment Authority (ADIA) in June 2026 to accelerate its AI strategy.
Following the Advent acquisition, Sapiens restructured with approximately 540 layoffs (10% of workforce), relocated its global headquarters to London, and appointed Mike Ettling as Executive Chairman and interim CEO. The company is positioning itself around its Insurance Agentification Program and AI Customer Experience Labs to embed agentic AI across the insurance lifecycle, while continuing to serve its 600+ customer base across tier-1 insurers including Chubb, MAPFRE, Hiscox, Co-operators, and Hollard.
