Home / Events / Risk Roundtable Discussion and Networking Happy Hour

Join GRF’s risk advisory experts and AHT Insurance for a can’t-miss roundtable discussion on organizational risk and strategy. Roundtable attendees will come away with the tools and fundamentals they need to revisit their current risk mitigation strategy and plan for the future.

The event will kick off with an engaging panel discussion among industry pioneers on the emerging risks affecting some of the NY metro area’s most prominent enterprises. Attendees are encouraged to share their own challenges while engaging in an interactive roundtable discussion with our speakers and their own peers. Following the formal program, participants are invited to continue the discussion in a breakout format during a casual happy hour.
