Tuesday 25 April 2023, 6pm to 8pm, kindly hosted by Control Risks

Covid brought into sharp focus the need for resilience to be a permanent priority for businesses. However, the required investment and resources to achieve this are often overlooked, so how can your organisation be incentivised to embrace true resilience?

We are delighted to invite Resilience First members to our spring reception with newly appointed Chair, Rick Cudworth, on Tuesday 25 April 2023, 6pm to 8pm,
for an evening of insight and networking, kindly hosted by Jean Devlin, Partner at Control Risks, in central London.

Through a fireside chat with Rick, moderated by our Executive Director Martyn Link, we will explore ways in which resilience can be driven in organisations across all sectors, such as:

  • How to understand, communicate and measure the value of resilience
  • How to motivate your organisation to invest in resilience holistically
  • What barriers may be encountered when attempting to incentivise resilience, and how these can be overcome

The event will also offer our members the opportunity to find out more about our priorities for 2023 as well as the chance to network with industry peers.


For more information or to register, please contact Beena Chester on contact@resiliencefirst.co.uk.
