Forbes 30 Under 30 honoree built and sold a million-dollar business at 21, went on to create Harlem’s first nonprofit business incubator by 24, and then co-founded a venture capital firm that raised over $40 million for minority-owned small businesses. Now, Henry is on to his next venture: rewriting the rules of auto insurance – a move that has caught even him by surprise.
The Foundation
The son of Dominican immigrants, Henry grew up below the poverty line in New York City’s Washington Heights neighborhood.

Startup Loop Wins Funding for Fairer Auto Insurance Rating Model That Uses AI
January 19, 2021

Car auto-insurance from legacy providers has structural bias built into it. It uses metrics such as credit score, income, marital status and education to figure out insurance rates, which eventually disproportionately hurts low-income individuals through high rates and low protection.
Loop, co-founded by John Henry and Carey Anne Nadeau, hopes to launch an alternative model that is equitable for all communities.
“Structural bias is baked into financial services and institutions that perpetuate and reinforce [it],” said Nadeau, who has worked at Brookings Institute and studied at MIT around topics of mobility. “We can’t just focus on banking, [and] insurance is sort of the overlooked ugly stepchild in the world view of financial services.” ....
