The Women in Governance, Risk and Compliance Forum brings together the great and good of Governance, Risk and Compliance for a day of learning, insight, guidance and debate.

Focusing on the key areas of leadership, the role of HR in business and career progression, the Women in Governance, Risk and Compliance Forum will provide a platform to challenge the status quo for women in GRC and help lead the charge in changing these statistics.

With research from the PwC Women in Technology research study showing that only 27% of female respondents would consider a career in Technology, compared to 62% of males, and only 22% of respondents able to name a famous woman in the tech industry, there is a clear need for a platform to encourage and inspire the next generation of feamle leaders. 

The 2021 Forum had three core themes:

Female leaders, HR’s role in business and Career development, focussing on the challenges faced by women when climbing the leadership ladder, how to overcome these challenges, how to build confidence and paving out careers as a future female leader in GRC sectors.
