LSM and REIN develop bespoke drone cover for Sony

Liberty Specialty Markets has teamed up with REIN to provide Sony Electronics with an insurance product to offer drone purchasers and operators an instantly accessible coverage option.

Sony released its Airpeak S1 – the world’s smallest class drone that can be equipped with a full-size mirrorless interchangeable-lens Alpha camera – in December 2021.

“Our partnership with REIN enabled us to provide this unique solution for Sony’s Professional Drone Airpeak S1 and demonstrates how we develop tailored solutions to support the ever growing and evolving needs of our insureds. We look forward to expanding our partnership with REIN to bring more embedded insurance solutions to our partners and clients,” said Lewis Edwards, head of delegated authority practice, Liberty Specialty Markets.

“At REIN, our goal is to provide the technology necessary for carriers to be the partner companies trust for embedded insurance,” added Jason Griswold, CEO and co-founder at REIN. “By leveraging REIN’s IX platform, Liberty can provide global brands such as Sony the ability to access digital insurance products designed to meet their customers where they are, when they need it. We are consistently impressed with the Liberty teams’ vision and commitment to being at the forefront of industry transformation and are thrilled to team up with Liberty to help their customers access comprehensive coverage options that are fundamental to growing the mobility industry.”
