He has more than 30 years of insurance experience specializing in the sports and entertainment field and developed many complex programs, including motor sports, Major League Baseball, the Olympic games, the Special Olympics, and amusement parks and attractions. He has also participated as a member of the risk committee for several Olympic games.
Robinson is responsible for the production and underwriting of contingency insurance products for the sports and entertainment industries. Prior to joining SIG, he was CEO of Marketing ETC, a company he founded in 1998 that specialized in contingency coverages and specialty risks.
