Who we are
Apollo, a Skyward Group company, is an innovation‑inspired insurance platform operating at Lloyd’s of London, delivering data‑driven and creative solutions across a broad range of risks. Our name reflects our origins, inspired by founder Neil Armstrong, the first person to walk on the moon, and by Jim Hays, who together set out to create a different kind of Lloyd’s platform focused, agile and built around people. Since launch in 2009, we have grown into a diversified insurance group offering products across Property, Casualty, Marine, Energy and Transportation, Specialty and Reinsurance, alongside Smart Follow and digital and embedded risk programmes. With a team of more than 300 professionals, we continue to grow with purpose, combining underwriting excellence, innovation and collaboration to enable a more resilient and sustainable world.
