 IMA Financial Group today announced that Senior Vice President, Director of Innovation & Strategy Garrett Droege will lead IMA’s Digital Risk Practice, launched in 2022 to study the inherent risks of emerging technology such as Web3, blockchain, crypto, decentralized finance and more.

A recognized digital risk expert, Droege led the launch of IMA Web3Labs, the metaverse’s first insurance and risk management R&D facility, in 2022. IMA created the Digital Risk Practice in direct response to client needs.

“The risks associated with new technologies are growing exponentially, yet products are not keeping up with demand,” said Droege. “IMA is one of few leaders in emerging risks with a unique understanding of the marketplace, making us well equipped to define and provide valuable coverage for the crypto ecosystem.”

The Digital Risk Practice is a new division of IMA’s Advanced Industries Specialty, which includes its Technology, Life Sciences and Advanced Manufacturing practice groups. Led by IMA Executive Vice President Mark Ware, the Advanced Industries specialty is a key growth driver for IMA and collectively provides insurance and risk management services to some of the world’s most innovative companies.

“Garrett has been at the forefront of IMA’s Web3 efforts and is a pioneer in digital asset risk management,” said Ware. “His unique understanding of the complex insurance marketplace for these innovative companies makes him the ideal leader for IMA’s Digital Risk Practice.”
