DAS (Digital Agriculture Services), winner of FinTech Australia’s 2025 Insurtech of the Year and the 2024 Governor of Victoria Startup Of The Year Award, has been selected to join the Austrade UK Landing Pad – London, a six-week program helping high-growth Australian scaleups enter the UK market.
The program will support DAS’ expansion into the UK insurance and financial services sector — one of the most advanced and climate-aware markets in the world.
DAS is transforming how insurers and lenders assess and price rural risk. Its AI-led, geospatial technology connects property-level climate, productivity and asset data, helping financial institutions make faster, fairer, climate-intelligent decisions..
“The UK is a natural next step for us,” said Anthony Willmott, DAS Co-Founder and CEO. “Its insurers are facing the same climate, risk and data challenges we’ve helped solve in Australia. We’re ready to help close the rural protection gap globally.”
The UK’s £250 billion insurance sector is the largest in Europe and the third largest globally, with a strong regulatory push for transparency and climate risk disclosure. The Prudential Regulation Authority (PRA), FCA, and Transition Plan Taskforce (TPT) are driving new expectations for how insurers quantify, price and report climate risk — creating a natural entry point for DAS’ capabilities.
“Our technology turns climate risk into actionable intelligence,” said Anthony Willmott. “Joining the Landing Pad is a chance to accelerate our mission — and help the UK build more resilient rural and financial systems.”
