Whose Liability Is It Anyway?
Join us to gain insight and tips from a tech insurance specialist who’ll cover what start ups & small digital companies should know at the beginning of their journey, and the things to consider as their company grows.

Background: Insurance for a start up can be a confusing and difficult process. With commercial insurance being so different to simply buying house or car insurance, it can lead to confusion and frustration for founders. This is only exacerbated when these founders are working in an innovative field creating products that are yet to exist and therefore do not easily fit within a tick box that some insurers ask you to complete.
Sam Taylor, a Chartered Insurance Broker, who specialises in working with Technology companies will be discussing what basic covers start ups should have at the beginning of their journey, as well as some covers that they may wish to consider on the horizon as the companies grow and take on external investment as well as how best to navigate everyone’s least favourite time of the year – their insurance renewal period!
