Lunch & Learn: From R&D to Scale – Managing Risk at Every Stage of Growth

As technology companies push the boundaries of innovation, their risk exposure grows just as quickly. In this Lunch & Learn session, Jacob Powers of Clarke & Sampson, Inc. will walk founders and leadership teams through the insurance strategies that help protect companies as they grow.

From early research and development and seed funding to clinical trials, product launch, and rapid scale, Jacob will explain the essential coverages companies should consider at each stage. Using real-world claim scenarios, he will show how these policies actually respond and why the timing, structure, and limits of coverage matter.

Attendees will leave with a clearer understanding of how to build a risk strategy that evolves with their company, protects leadership teams and investors, and allows organizations to stay focused on innovation and growth.
