Chicagoland Risk Forum Co-Chairs

On behalf of the 2023 Chicagoland Risk Forum Planning Committee we are honored and delighted to welcome you to the 8th Annual CRF in Chicago on September 14th.

We are thankful to be able to hold the forum for the third year in a row at the Old Post Office located in downtown Chicago. We trust that you will enjoy the beautiful Old Post office venue.

The Chicagoland Risk Forum is an event intended for Risk Managers designed specifically by Risk Managers.

At this year’s event, we are offering Fireside Chats with Risk Managers so that you can hear directly from Risk Managers.

The event will also feature Risk Manager Only roundtables which are a unique opportunity to discuss relevant topics with peer Risk Managers.

In addition, break-out educational sessions will feature a panel including a Risk Manager and industry experts discussing a current industry topic.

The structure of the event will include a number of networking opportunities throughout the day so that you can meet with industry peers.

Our goal is to host an unforgettable risk and insurance industry conference where you will be able to connect with many other risk and insurance industry professionals.  

We want to extend our sincerest gratitude to our many sponsors for supporting CRF 2023. In addition, we want to thank sponsors that have supported the event in the past.

Without our sponsors we would not be able to share a conference that brings a myriad of learning and networking opportunities. 

We look forward to bringing an outstanding event to you where you are able to network with industry peers and bring more knowledge to your role in the Risk Management industry. 

 

We hope that you will plan to join us on September 14th at the Old Post Office.

Regards,
Andy Adams and Robert Benvenuto
