What is TechAssure All About? – Video Update from TechAssure

Diversified Insurance Group has been a member of TechAssure almost since its inception.  TechAssure is a non-profit organization founded in 2001 for insurance and risk management professionals dedicated to serving clients in the Technology, Life Sciences, Digital Media, and Venture Capital industries.

At the inception of TechAssure it was agreed that the insurance policies then in existence did not adequately address the major risks of the average technology or life science company. These companies were typically venture-backed and were growing rapidly. TechAssure members came up with a wish-list of coverage enhancements and pricing targets and partnered with the leading insurance carriers in these areas to create best-in-class coverage forms that are offered at preferred rates. TechAssure later did the same thing for Venture Capital and Private Equity Funds creating an Asset Protection Program endorsed by the NVCA that addresses the unique exposures that VC/PE managers and members have in running their funds. It is much like a D&O policy but tailored to cover big liability holes that exist for fund managers and members in the execution of their duties in their respective roles.
