– how to think about insuring digital assets, skins, accounts and hardware, and what makes valuation and evidence easier than in the physical world

– what digital communities expect from protection products and why language, credibility and cultural fit matter

– how embedded distribution works in gaming ecosystems and why federations, marketplaces and events offer strong entry points

– what drives B2B2C adoption, partner objections, and the actual timelines from first conversation to go-live

– why the future of gaming insurance is parametric, automated and AI-driven, with instant, event-based payouts

– what insurers can learn from gamer expectations around UX, transparency and community-centric product design
