The IRM hosted the 2003 Risk Forum in October at Robinson College in Cambridge. The theme, 'Managing Complexity' focused on the breadth of pressures facing organisations in today's world, particularly political and economic risk, governance and regulation.

The Forum was chaired by Lord Hunt of Wirral, supported by a range of interesting and thought-provoking keynote speakers to challenge delegates thinking, including Steve Marshall, former chief executive of Railtrack plc, Stephen James, chairman of the International Group of P&I Clubs and George Cox, Director General of the Institute of Directors. Twenty workshops and masterclasses enabled delegates to work closely in small groups to learn from each other and from acknowledged leaders in risk management best practice.
