A message from the team behind RiskMinds International 2022
We want to say a huge thank you to everyone who joined us for RiskMinds International 2022. It was fantastic to see the community connecting for the largest gathering since There was an amazing buzz and exciting atmosphere onsite with 750+ great minds coming together in the culturally rich city of Barcelona.
We welcomed top senior risk minds across the international community to take to the stage to tackle the most pressing challenges and opportunities the industry is facing. The diversity and depth of content across a variety of different formats including presentations, panels, fireside chats, workshops, boardroom discussions and roundtables. This was brought together by 175+ speakers from regulators, academics, buy and sell side was outstanding.
We welcomed guest speakers who shared their valuable insights on winning minds, diversity and inclusion and globalisation. They shared their expert opinions on a range of different topics including what’s driving the status quo in an age of uncertainty, where we are in the credit cycle, why businesses fail at machine learning and a case study of the Boeing 737 MAX 8 airliner tragedy.
As part of the diversity initiatives at RiskMinds, we had a dedicated boardroom session championing women in risk, discussing female representation across the industry and sharing practical tips on helping women thrive. We also launched a finding your voice talent session. Here, seven future leaders delivered a two-minute presentation using the skills they have learnt in a separate workshop to help uncover the secrets of professional public speakers and improve presentation skills to ‘own the room’. Additionally we invited future RiskMinds to get involved in the discussions and pick the brains of leading experts.
As we approach the end of an extremely challenging year for risk management, this is the place where great minds come together to share expertise, best practice and innovations shaping future standards for the industry.
Thank you again from the entire RiskMinds International team. We very much look forward to seeing you next year.
