With momentum accelerating towards Europe’s premier risk expo, a second wave of influential partners, including the Institute of Risk Management and Innovate Finance, reinforces the event’s core focus on GRC, Risk, AI, and Cyber GRC.
The excitement for #RISK Europe is becoming palpable as the event further solidifies its position as the continent’s most critical forum for risk, governance, and compliance professionals. As we draw closer to the November 12-13, 2025 gathering at ExCeL London, the event’s core mission—to champion an integrated, cross-functional approach to risk—is attracting the very best organisations in the field.
Building on the incredible foundation of our initial partners, we are now delighted to announce a second wave of strategic collaborations that deepen the expertise across our core content pillars. Please welcome the Institute of Risk Management (IRM), The Banking 50, Innovate Finance, and Cybersecurity Unity to the #RISK Europe family.
The involvement of these four powerhouses is a definitive statement of the event’s quality and scope. Each one aligns perfectly with a central theme of the conference, ensuring that our GRC, Risk, AI, and Cyber GRC stages will feature unparalleled insight, authority, and real-world relevance.
The Institute of Risk Management (IRM)
At the very heart of the risk profession lies the pursuit of excellence, a mission championed globally by the Institute of Risk Management (IRM). As the world’s leading professional body for risk management, their partnership with #RISK Europe anchors our Risk pillar with unmatched authority.
The IRM’s dedication to developing competent and respected risk professionals through globally recognised qualifications and thought leadership is a perfect synergy with our goal to provide actionable, forward-looking content. This collaboration ensures attendees will gain insights that are not only current but are also benchmarked against the highest professional standards, directly connecting them to the gold standard of the risk management practice.
A GRC Focus on High-Stakes Finance: The Banking 50
No industry understands the complexities of governance, risk, and compliance better than the financial services sector. That is why we are thrilled to welcome The Banking 50 as a key partner for our GRC pillar. As a premier community for the most influential leaders in banking, their involvement brings a sharp, industry-specific focus to the GRC dialogue.
The Banking 50 provides a unique lens on the intense regulatory pressures, sophisticated financial crime challenges, and high-stakes governance required to operate at the top tier of global finance. Their community’s perspective will ensure the conversations at #RISK Europe are grounded in the real-world challenges faced by those managing risk in one of the world’s most demanding environments.
Driving the AI & RegTech Dialogue: Innovate Finance
The future of risk and compliance is inextricably linked to technology, particularly the revolutionary power of Artificial Intelligence. Our AI pillar is significantly strengthened by our partnership with Innovate Finance, the independent industry body and voice of UK FinTech. Innovate Finance stands at the nexus of technology, finance, and regulation, championing the innovations that are redefining the industry.
Their community is at the forefront of developing and deploying AI-driven solutions and RegTech platforms. This partnership ensures #RISK Europe will be the key forum for discussing how to harness AI for strategic advantage while navigating its ethical and regulatory complexities, bringing the leaders of the FinTech revolution into the heart of the risk conversation.
Uniting the Cyber GRC Community: Cybersecurity Unity
In a digital world, cyber risk is enterprise risk. Our Cyber GRC pillar is dedicated to exploring this critical intersection, and our partnership with Cybersecurity Unity brings this mission to life. As a community-driven organisation dedicated to connecting and supporting cybersecurity professionals, their involvement fosters a spirit of collective defence.
Cybersecurity Unity’s mission to promote collaboration, share best practices, and build a united front against digital adversaries is precisely the ethos needed to build true cyber resilience. This collaboration will provide attendees with access to a vibrant community of frontline experts, ensuring the Cyber GRC discussions are practical, relevant, and focused on building a stronger, more secure digital future for all.
The continued expansion of our partner ecosystem demonstrates a powerful, shared commitment to integrated risk management. By welcoming the Institute of Risk Management, The Banking 50, Innovate Finance, and Cybersecurity Unity, #RISK Europe solidifies its promise to deliver the most comprehensive and collaborative risk event in Europe. Together, we are creating a platform where delegates can gain a holistic understanding of the risk landscape and forge the connections needed to lead with confidence.
