Celebrating Recent Successes
All of our recent webinars have had resounding success, reinforcing the benefit of the new zero-fee membership model. One of these webinars was the first-ever RMA Australia webinar hosted by the Emerging Risk Professionals Group, which had 500+ registrations. Congratulations to Mish Monsur and Katrina Gryllakis for their superb organisation and moderation of this event. Special thanks go to Wilan Wong and Lachlan Hardisty from KPMG for sharing their professional insights into AI. With young risk professionals such as this group, a bright future lies ahead for risk management.
RMA Australia CRO Conference
Our signature event of the year is just around the corner – the RMA Australia CRO Conference. This annual event allows us to come together, share insights, and chart the path forward. This year, we are pleased to partner with Deloitte as the host of the CRO dinner. With the theme “Future Gazing,” we aim to challenge our risk community to view risk from an entirely new lens.
