Inaugural London Risk Week announced for May
A celebration of London’s world-leading position as a centre of risk transfer will take place in May this year.
The inaugural London Risk Week, from the 11-15 May, will see a series of risk-themed events and networking hosted by firms across the capital, designed to spark debate, put the spotlight on risk and showcase London’s expertise and experience.
The event is run by the London Market Group and Airmic is one of over 30 sponsors. It will be centred on the Global Risk Summit, a one-day conference for senior decision makers being held on May 12 at the Guildhall and hosted by the City of London Corporation.
Caroline Wagstaff, CEO of the London Market Group, said this is first of its kind event:
“The aggregation of all this activity is building a great sense of excitement, and it is positive reinforcement of London’s position as the fulcrum of innovation in risk transfer. I am grateful to the City of London Corporation and Dame Sue Langley for their leadership in this, and I hope we are building a repeatable template for the future”.
Events will focus on four themes – geopolitics, supply chain, natural catastrophes and cyber & AI – and will range from private breakfasts and public seminars, fireside chats and dinners.
Airmic CEO, Diane Maxwell, urged members to get involved:
“London has long been at the heart of global risk and insurance. London Risk Week brings that to life, capturing the energy, expertise and collaboration that define the market and bringing the right people together at the right moment. I’m looking forward to seeing many of you there!”
