Insurer: Ergo appoints head of US subsidiary Next to the board
For over a year, the innovative US subsidiary Next has been part of the Ergo Group. Now, founder Guy Goldstein is moving onto the board of the insurer.
Ergo, a Düsseldorf-based insurance company, has appointed Guy Goldstein as its new Chief Artificial Intelligence Officer. Goldstein, who will join the company's board on October 1, will oversee the use of artificial intelligence at Ergo, which is Germany's second-largest primary insurer. He will also continue to serve as CEO of Ergo's US subsidiary, Ergo Next Insurance, which specializes in small and medium-sized businesses and was acquired by Ergo in 2025.
Goldstein replaces Mark Klein, who had served as Chief Digital Officer for 10 years and had been set to join the board in 2024, but is leaving the company of his own accord.
