Vivere Partners announces partnership with Berkshire Hathaway Specialty Insurance

Vivere Partners, a specialty insurance underwriting platform focused on niche lines of business, announced a strategic relationship with BHSI to launch a new Private Company Management Liability program.

The program will be led by Michael Levins, Vivere’s Chief Underwriting Officer for Management Liability. Levins will oversee the development of a long-term, stable portfolio focused on small to mid-sized private company accounts.

Founded in 2025, Vivere Partners announced last year a $7.5 million Series A funding round led by General Catalyst, Pathlight Ventures and Greenlight Re.

“We are very excited to be working with Vivere given their strong underwriting foundation, innovative technology, and shared objective of building a sustainable, profitable program which complements our existing portfolio.” – Keith Freid, Product Line Officer for Private & Nonprofit Management Liability at BHSI.

“We are thrilled to partner with such a highly regarded name in the insurance industry. BHSI and Vivere share a vision rooted in long-term success based upon disciplined underwriting principles. By combining deep technical expertise with the active use of technology, we aim to reshape how management liability risks are underwritten and serviced.” – Chris McKechnie, CEO of Vivere Partners.
