Furthermore, these newly acquired funds will serve as a catalyst for Onsurity’s overarching vision, which is to establish partnerships with more than 50,000 companies and extend coverage to over 5 million individuals by the year 2026. A portion of this funding will also be directed towards advancing the company’s efforts to achieve sustainable profitability.
