Stéphane Martin, CEO Smart Risk Consulting & Co-Founder at Risk-!n, shares what attendees can look forward to at this year’s conference
Since its inception in 2018 with just 130 participants, Risk-!n has evolved into a premier gathering, attracting over 300 risk professionals in 2024.
This is a testament to the value Risk-!n delivers. While we could simply claim it’s the best risk management conference in Switzerland, the real question is: Why do so many risk leaders keep coming back?
The answer lies beyond the sessions and speakers: it’s about the connections forged, the ideas exchanged, and the partnerships built.
Risk-!n isn’t just another event in your diary. It’s a dynamic space where today’s challenges meet tomorrow’s solutions.
Here, risk managers, insurance experts, business continuity leaders, strategists, CEOs, CFOs and captive owners come together not just to learn but to connect. In an industry where relationships are pivotal, where people hire people, and partnerships drive progress, Risk-!n is the ultimate networking ecosystem.

WHY ATTEND? BEYOND CONTENT, IT’S ABOUT COMMUNITY
Yes, Risk-!n offers cutting-edge content on the most pressing issues in risk. But what truly sets it apart is the opportunity to engage directly with thought leaders and peers facing similar challenges.
Whether you’re navigating the complexities of insurance, steering business continuity, managing emerging risks, or shaping corporate strategies, the conversations you’ll have in hallways, networking sessions, and informal meet-ups often hold as much value as the sessions themselves.
KEY TOPICS THAT SPARK CONNECTIONS
- ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE: AI isn’t just reshaping risk assessment, it’s redefifining the future of decision-making. At Risk-!n, you’ll not only learn about the latest AI-driven tools but also discuss with peers how they’re implementing these technologies to stay ahead of emerging threats. These exchanges often lead to collaborations that extend well beyond the conference.
- SUPPLY CHAIN RISKS: The fragility of global supply chains has become evident in recent years. Risk-!n brings together experts who’ve tackled disruptions head-on. Sharing war stories, strategies, and solutions in real-time fosters connections rooted in mutual challenges and shared successes.
- ENVIRONMENTAL, SOCIAL AND GOVERNANCE: ESG is more than a compliance issue – it’s a strategic imperative. Risk-!n offers a platform to explore how organisations integrate ESG into their risk frameworks. The discussions here often evolve into partnerships focused on sustainable practices and responsible governance.
- CYBER RISKS: In this digital world, cyber threats are not merely IT concerns, they’re business risks. Risk-!n’s cyber sessions are designed to encourage dialogue, allowing you to connect with cybersecurity experts and peers, to exchange ideas on resilience, response strategies and the ever-changing landscape.

A word from Sara Benwell, editor of StrategicRISK and moderator at this year’s Risk-!n
”We’re delighted to be a media partner for Risk-!n once more, and I’m looking forward to catching up with lots of you in Zurich.
What always strikes me about this conference is not just the quality of speakers and sessions, but also the quality of conversations I have with attendees in the breaks.
It’s great to catch up with some of the most innovative risk managers in the business, and fi nd out what’s on their agendas.
This year is shaping up to be another fantastic event, covering topics that should be relevant to anyone who is interested in strategic risk management that improves organisational resilience. I’ll see you there!”
