Our story
apinity was launched in spring 2018 as “Syncier Marketplace”, and was embedded in a high-potential incubator program of Allianz SE Insurance Group.
David Vazquez Cortizo and our former co-managing director Anna-Carina Häusler joined in 2019 and began creating a sustainable business and development team that deeply identifies with the company’s values, vision, and mission.
A customer-centric approach and endless passion enabled the team to develop the API marketplace into a successful SaaS platform for business operations in a short period of time. In 2022, Munich RE decided to take over this promising API business innovation unit from Allianz SE and establish it as a full independent subsidiary.
And thus, apinity was born.
