Corgi Insurance, the AI-native InsurTech, has unveiled Golden by Corgi, a new vertical dedicated to serving sports and entertainment organisations, including leagues, federations, clubs, venues and events worldwide.
The launch targets a global sports sector that accounts for over $600bn in economic activity, where insurance underpins the operations of every team, league and tournament.
Heading up the new venture are Peter Akman and Mike T. Brown, both former company founders and one-time professional athletes. The pair combine entrepreneurial experience with first-hand knowledge of how the sports world operates.
According to the company, sports bodies have historically depended on patchwork insurance arrangements split between brokers, carriers and administrators, structures that carry layered fees and offer minimal accountability.
Golden aims to consolidate this into a single programme. Running on Corgi’s full-stack platform, the offering includes bespoke insurance programmes, certificates of insurance issued within minutes, claims managed in-house, embedded risk support and prevention initiatives designed for sports organisations.
The platform is already partnering with national governing bodies and Olympic programmes, among them USA Fencing, to back the federations and teams shaping sport’s future.
Golden operates as Corgi’s dedicated sports insurance arm, delivering commercial cover to sports organisations across the United States. It provides upwards of twenty coverage lines built around the distinctive exposures faced by teams, leagues, tournaments and facilities of every size.
Golden co-founder Peter Akman said, “Sports organizations operate in a highly specialized environment with risks that traditional commercial insurance products often fail to address. Golden was built specifically for this industry, providing organizations with a partner that understands the business of sports.”
Golden co-founder Mike Brown said, “Sports organizations deserve an insurance experience that moves as quickly as they do. We’re combining Corgi’s carrier strength with deep sports expertise to create an entirely new standard for sports insurance.”
