Garrett Droege — Fintech and Digital Asset Leader · WTW is featured at InsuranceFest

Twenty years ago, nobody in insurance was thinking about crypto. Blockchain was a whitepaper. Digital assets were a punchline.

Garrett Droege was thinking about it anyway. Before digital assets were a coverage category, he was already there — founding startups, advising the U.S. Treasury on stablecoins, and quietly building the kind of expertise the industry would eventually have to catch up to.

Now at WTW, he works with the clients that make most underwriters nervous. Fintechs. Crypto platforms. Digital asset firms. The companies your clients are increasingly doing business with, investing in, or becoming.

Your clients are already in this space. The question is whether you are.
