About
"Akash Bharadia is the founder and CEO of Robophobic, a London-based frontier risk studio advising enterprises and boards on the risks of technology. Founded in 2025, Robophobic works with insurers, MGAs and regulated businesses adopting AI, and with technology companies seeking partnerships in the insurance market. Akash has been taking systems apart since he jailbroke his first phone aged 12, and began his career as an engineer across the NHS and in professional services, where in 2013 he was the sole responder to a CryptoLocker ransomware incident at a major UK port. He carried that grounding into nine and a half years at AXIS Capital, spanning cyber underwriting, incident response and, latterly, digital transformation and customer experience, while scouting investments for AXIS Digital Ventures and building the business cases to deploy them across the group and with its partners. He has mentored more than 70 startups through Lloyd's Lab, CyLon, HutZero and PwC Scale. "
