Neos is unique in our top five as the only entry not to have appeared in any of our previous indexes.<\/p>\n

All the more impressive, then, that it’s come straight in at number two.<\/p>\n

It shouldn’t be hard to see why: Neos exemplifies many of the key factors we look for in a Startups 100 company: it’s innovative, it’s disruptive, and it’s a little bit hard to explain…<\/p>\n

When Neos first introduced smart home insurance four years ago, it was a novel concept in a highly competitive market. Nevertheless, giving policyholders the power to not just find cover for accidents, but proactively prevent them by always being connected to their homes proved to be a winning idea.<\/p>\n

Founded by Matt Poll in 2016, Neos has since developed a suite of smart home technologies and services that enable its customers to look after their homes directly from their smartphones.<\/p>\n

This includes an indoor security camera, leak detectors, motion sensors, and a smart smoke alarm. Customers can either buy them separately, or buy the whole portfolio of products together, alongside smart property insurance from leading insurance partners.<\/p>\n

The whole thing adds up to a comprehensive home security package that gives its customers peace of mind, wherever they are.<\/p>\n

Neos saw its retail arm grow exponentially in 2019, achieving a 100% increase in customer acquisitions to surpass 150,000 in less than a year. In 2020, it’s aiming to double that figure.<\/p>\n

You could say that Neos’s market-leading position is as safe as houses.<\/p>\n
