The Chicagoland Risk Forum (CRF) Committees and Chicago RIMS Chapter leadership have agreed it is in the best interest of the risk management and insurance community to postpone our annual event until January 20, 2021.   

The CRF Committees are dedicated to delivering the Midwest’s premier risk event safely and conscientiously.  Our focus for 2020, The New Generation of Risk, is certainly apropos for the challenges we’re now facing, and we look forward to seeing you there. 

 While the date of CRF has changed, the venue has not.  Plan to join us at The Old Post Office (across from Union Station) for a full day of panel discussions, industry speakers, networking opportunities, and educational breakout sessions, followed by a fun and lively cocktail reception.

The Old Post Office has recently transformed from an old, neglected, vacant structure on the edge of Chicago’s loop, to a truly unique, modern, and inviting space overlooking the Chicago river.  Elements of the building’s history have been retained and offer a glimpse into a pre-e-mail era.  We’re delighted to host CRF in this world-class setting.

The CRF Committees, in partnership with the greater Midwest risk management and insurance community, are already hard at work to deliver a premier risk event providing leading education, professional development, and relationship building opportunities to help our constituents achieve success in The New Generation of Risk.  To keep our event focused on education and growth, we have eliminated the exhibit hall.  Attendees and sponsors can connect in an open and casual environment.

In addition to our full-day event on January 20, CRF will offer a Risk Manager only Round Table event on the afternoon of January 19, at a Loop location to be announced.  This event will be hosted by CRF sponsors and will have limited seating (first-come, first-serve availability), followed by a private dinner. More information will follow as details are confirmed.

We will share updates and details as they are refined over the coming months.  In the meantime, stay safe and healthy!
