Speakers will also analyse the change in the risk environment and the impact of this change on businesses and communities.
Conference drinks followed by a Gala Conference Dinner will be held at the Hilton Hotel on the evening of July 18, a perfect opportunity to network. Lisa Wilkinson, Co-Host of The Today Show (Network 9) will be the key-note speaker at the dinner.
