WELCOME

                                         Risk is changing all around us and for all of us.
                                  From the rise of cyber risks to industry restructuring, we are
                                  all looking at a new dimension in risk – and we should do it
SPONSORSHIP BROCHURE

                                           together. Because together we are stronger.

                                  As risk changes, so the European Risk Management Forum
                                   evolves to better meet the needs of our members and our
                                 partners. We have chosen Berlin in 2019 as a venue to attract
                                  the greatest number of risk managers from a wide range of
                                  business sectors. We will, for the first time, provide metrics
                                 for our partners to measure their performance at the Forum.
                                  Finally, the programme has been structured to enhance the
                                 opportunities to meet, make contacts and for our partners to
                                             showcase their brands and businesses.

                                   I invite you to join FERMA in presenting the 2019 European
                                 Risk Management Forum in a city that has faced extraordinary
                                 risks and today celebrates its success. From its acknowledged
                                 history to its lively business environment, exciting architecture
                                  and outstanding culture, Berlin is a meeting place for Europe.
                                          Let us meet there to aim for the future together.
