The 12-month contract is another big win for the Manchester-based insurance broker, allowing them to curate events, build bespoke products and distribute content to a wider audience via the popular media platform

RiskBox are delighted to announce a 12-month partnership with The Drum Network.

The deal is set to prove instrumental in helping RiskBox cement further close relationships with creative and digital agencies. The Drum’s Network platform will offer a place to post content, host workshops, and promote events to a marketing audience.

RiskBox will also have the honour of sponsoring an award at The Drum Agency Business Awards ceremony in November.

Over the last five years, the insurance broker has demonstrated a commitment to protecting the agency sector. Whether arranging insurance solutions, educating about risks in the digital world, or bringing agencies together at events – they have always attempted to help these organisations be the best versions of themselves.

Now, working with over 200 agencies throughout the UK, at all stages of their business journey, RiskBox have developed a thorough understanding of the pressures and problems they encounter on a regular basis.

This has helped RiskBox make clients stronger, more robust, and capable of withstanding unforeseen challenges.

Michael Henderson, RiskBox Director, added:

''We've always had massive respect for The Drum – from reading the magazine sat in The Sharp Project through to attending their network events at various agency offices.

“Everything we've seen them do has been impressive, so to be able to partner up with their network over the next year is a really exciting step in our development as a business – and the fulfilment of a personal ambition.

“Everyone at RiskBox is thrilled to be part of the vast Drum Network. It’s going to be terrific enhancing our knowledge of the agency world and sharing this journey with its members. “

''We would like to thank Gavin Sherratt at Mashbo for introducing us several years ago and making this possible."

RiskBox’s first whitepaper, ‘Understanding the Insurance Landscape for Independent Creative and Digital Agencies in 2019’, revealed the alarming number of agency owners confused by insurance.

The less people know, the higher the risk that they are incorrectly insured for key contracts and tenders. Through The Drum, RiskBox hope to share knowledge like this, and show the value of insurance within the creative and digital agency market.
