The technology sector in the UK is expanding 2.6 times faster than the rest of the UK economy. This, according to the 2018 Tech Nation Report, is an indication of not only how quickly tech companies are growing but how quickly the risks tech companies face are evolving.

High customer expectations and times pressures on tech companies sometimes lead to mistakes being made and this is when having the best team behind your client is key. Hiscox specialist technology underwriters understand your clients’ business and offer broad, market leading insurance cover, whilst our in-house claims solicitors can help protect the reputation of your clients’ business if something should go wrong.
