Collaboration combines Gallagher’s global insurance expertise and Philippine market presence with insureMO’s technology to accelerate product launches, carrier connectivity and digital distribution

SINGAPORE, Sept. 8, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — insureMO, the global leading insurance Middle Office platform provider, today announced the successful launch of its API-led insurance distribution platform to support Gallagher’s expanding digital insurance distribution capabilities across various ecosystems in the Philippines.

Founded in 1927, Gallagher serves clients across more than 130 countries. In the Philippines, Gallagher builds on the presence established by Philinsure in 2000, combining deep local market knowledge and relationships with Gallagher’s global insurance and risk management capabilities.

The collaboration with insureMO strengthens Gallagher’s digital distribution capabilities across affinity, banking, embedded insurance, financial services and other emerging channels.

Supporting a Growing Insurance Portfolio

The initial implementation supports Gallagher’s affinity business with a leading loan company, with products including Group Credit Life, Group Personal Accident, Enhanced Group Personal Accident, Family Relief Program, Calamity Assistance Program, Fire, and Accidental Death & Dismemberment (AD&D).

From January through July 2026, the portfolio represented more than 400 million in aggregate policy/transaction value, demonstrating the platform’s ability to support substantial volumes as digital distribution expands.

Faster Product Launches and Connectivity

insureMO provides Gallagher with a technology foundation that brings together insurance product configuration, digital customer journeys, APIs and carrier connectivity.

This enables Gallagher to bring products to market faster, integrate new distribution partners more efficiently and improve analytics and reporting. insureMO’s carrier connectivity capabilities also help reduce the time and effort required to introduce additional insurers and products to distribution channels in the Philippine market.

Expanding the Digital Insurance Ecosystem

The collaboration is already extending beyond the initial affinity implementation. Gallagher and insureMO are pursuing opportunities including retail insurance through banks, commercial lines in the transportation sector, embedded insurance for financial services companies, standalone digital insurance marketplaces and broader carrier connectivity.

“Gallagher brings a powerful combination of global insurance expertise and local market knowledge in the Philippines,” said Rajat Sharma, CRO of insureMO. “By combining that strength with insureMO’s technology and carrier connectivity, we can shorten the journey from an insurance opportunity to a live product and create a foundation for Gallagher to continuously expand its digital insurance ecosystem.”

The platform is organized across three pillars: API, Data, and AI, with 2,500+ atomic APIs spanning the full insurance lifecycle from quotation to claims.

ADELAIDE, Australia, Sept. 8, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Trinasolar, a global leader in smart PV and energy storage solutions, has supplied 200 Trinasolar Vertex S+ 500W (NEG18R.28) solar modules for a new 100 kW rooftop solar system at one of South Australia’s most recognised tourism and hospitality landmarks, the National Wine Centre of Australia.

Located adjacent to the Adelaide Botanic Garden, the National Wine Centre presented a complex commercial solar installation. The installed system spans two buildings with unique, multi-angled roof structures, while the venue needed to remain fully operational throughout installation.

Delivered by Venergy Solar, the system was carefully designed around the existing roof geometry, with the arrays positioned to remain largely concealed from key public viewing areas. Allowing rooftop solar to be integrated without detracting from the visual character of the landmark. A staged installation also allowed the National Wine Centre to continue hosting weddings, conferences, tourism activities and other events without interruption.

The Trinasolar Vertex S+ modules were selected for their combination of a 500W output and medium-format, lightweight design, enabling effective use of the available rooftop space. The modules’ n-type i-TOPCon cell technology supports high efficiency and low long-term degradation and strong energy generation over the operating life of the system.

Edison Zhou, Head of Australia, New Zealand and Pacific Islands at Trinasolar said, “The National Wine Centre shows the range of considerations that can come into play in commercial solar, particularly for prominent buildings where available rooftop space and design are important. Vertex S+ combines strong power output with a practical module format, giving installers greater flexibility to make effective use of available rooftop space.”

Matthew Wilkins, founder and CEO of Venergy Solar, said the project required multiple site-specific engineering solutions. “Because of the roof geometry and the visibility of the site, we spent a lot of time modelling how the system would sit across the two buildings and how best to use the available roof areas. The Vertex S+ gave us the power output and format we needed to work within those design parameters,” Mr Wilkins said.

“We have also worked with Trinasolar for many years. Product quality, an established presence in Australia and access to local after-sales support are all important considerations when we select the products we put on our customers’ roofs.”

National Wine Centre General Manager Simon Burgess said the investment reflected the venue’s broader commitment to sustainability while respecting its unique location and visitor experience.

“The National Wine Centre is surrounded by nature and sits in one of Adelaide’s most unique locations, so sustainability is an important part of how we see the venue evolving,” Mr Burgess said.

“The investment in solar forms part of the National Wine Centre’s broader focus on sustainability, operational efficiency and responsible asset management. As a significant South Australian venue located alongside the Adelaide Botanic Garden, it is important that we continue to identify practical opportunities to reduce our environmental impact.”
