Go beyond just business cards — have the invaluable face-to-face conversations that really matter.

Our receptions offer unique opportunities for you to connect with fellow insurance risk managers with diverse and fresh perspectives on optimal bank protection, while fostering innovations for tackling emerging risks. Deepen your existing connections or build new relationships as you cultivate a strategic peer network you can tap into long after the IRM Forum is over.

This year, connect with fellow risk managers at the Hilton Bonnet Creek while you enjoy a top Orlando resort’s delicious bevs and bites. Remember to wear your badge; it’s your ticket to enter these special events designed to enhance your attendee experience.

"Coming to the Forum and engaging with peers is validating. Some solutions that we come up with often happen through a conversation, and that not only helps me, it helps everyone. We all mutually benefit without the detriment to any one party." – Past Attendee
