About Icon

Icon has reinvented retirement benefits, by radically simplifying the role of the employer and delivering best in class retirement plans to savers. Icon enables every business to offer a retirement plan to every worker, 1099 & W2. Icon’s technology platform integrates workplace savings and personal savings into one elegant solution, creating a more inclusive and sustainable system for delivering retirement savings solutions.

Why Now

401k plans are failing the workforce: there are 6m employers and only 600k 401k plans leaving 81 million people without access to a plan. What's needed is a new approach to delivering workplace retirement savings plans. A solution that radically simplifies the role of the employer and prioritizes the needs of individual savers. Icon delivers the first smart alternative to a 401k plan.
