Episode 023: Focus On What You Can Control with Bob Frady

Bob Frady is the Co-founder and Vide President of Guidewire Hazardhub, a game-changing provider of API-driven property risk insights that are revolutionizing the P&C industry.

As a kid, school was his safe haven. It was his sanctuary, where he found solace in the familiar routine and orderliness that surrounded him. Eventually, he made his way to Cornell University. His first job was a daunting one: working in a massive call center at Putnam Investments in Boston. He later relocated to California and his hard work ethic paid off when he launched his first startup, which experienced some success. His second venture, HazardHub, was even more successful.

Under Bob's visionary leadership and following Guidewire's acquisition in 2021, HazardHub has adopted a technology-driven approach and established itself as the insurance sector's fastest-growing provider of geospatial risk data.
