The costs of IP litigation have skyrocketed over recent years, with big cases such as Stac Electronic v. Microsoft and Fonar v. General Electric amounting to more than US $120 million in expenses. Mitigating the risks associated with being sued or having to sue a third party for intellectual property (IP) infringement has become a strategic matter for businesses. IP insurance coverage has become the cornerstone to effectively protect against those risks. What is IP insurance? From standard to specialty which types of policies truly cover IP owners' needs and their risks? Why should IP owners consider such policies? And how do these policies work in practice? 

The guest of this episode of Brand & New is Jack Flug, Managing Director at Marsh (USA), one of the world’s leading insurance brokers and risk advisors, operating in 130 countries and serving commercial and individual clients. Mr. Flug has been with Marsh since 1995 and is based in New York City.
