Frequently asked questions

What insurance do tech startups need in Brighton?
At a minimum, tech startups need professional indemnity and cyber insurance. As you grow and hire, employers' liability becomes a legal requirement. Many investors and enterprise clients also require D&O cover.
Does professional indemnity cover software bugs?
Yes. Professional indemnity insurance can cover claims arising from software errors, system failures, or poor advice—provided the policy is correctly structured for technology services.
Is cyber insurance worth it for small tech firms?
Absolutely. Small firms are frequently targeted by cyber criminals and often lack the resources to recover without insurance. Cyber insurance covers breach response costs, legal fees, and business interruption.
