TAMPA — Slide, an insurtech startup that quickly raised $100 million in seed capital, has acquired $400 million worth of premiums from Orlando-based St. Johns Insurance Co., which recently ceased operations after a ratings agency downgraded it.
The move, according to a press release, makes Slide — founded by former Heritage Insurance Holdings CEO Bruce Lucas — one of the three largest insurtech companies in the country.
