SUMMARY:Agentic AI in GRC: From Novelty to Strategic Business Advantage
DESCRIPTION:REGISTER\n\n\n\n\nGRC has already moved from back-office function to business enabler. Now\, agentic AI has arrived\, and it’s changing what GRC can be\, not just how fast it runs. \n\n\n\nJoin GRC 20/20 industry analyst and pundit Michael Rasmussen for a live session on how GRC practitioners can put agentic AI to work to enhance productivity and decision-making\, without adding complexity. \n\n\n\nIn this session\, we’ll discuss how AI shifts GRC: \n\n\n\n\nFrom fragmented tools to orchestrated intelligence — Manual GRC leaves risk\, compliance\, audit\, and cyber data siloed across disconnected systems. Agentic AI orchestrates that data\, workflows\, and people so nothing falls through the cracks between cycles.\n\n\n\nFrom periodic assessments to continuous sensing — Point-in-time reviews leave organizations exposed the moment conditions change. AI-enabled systems of intelligence sense\, interpret\, and reason across internal and external signals in real time.\n\n\n\nFrom reactive reporting to predictive response — Manual processes tell you what already happened. Agentic AI moves GRC from generating information to initiating action\, recommending or executing responses as risk emerges.\n\n\n\nFrom bolted-on to built-in AI for true transformation — Applying AI to summarize or accelerate an existing broken process just makes a weak process faster. The real opportunity is redesigning risk and compliance around what continuous data and autonomous agents now make possible.\n\n\n\nFrom assurance-speak to business decision language. Traditional GRC struggles to get in front of leadership until something goes wrong. AI translates risk insight into the language of business decisions\, embedding it at the point of investment or strategic commitment.\n\n\n\nFrom ungoverned automation to built-in governance. As AI moves from advising to acting\, practitioners need clear answers on authority\, data access\, escalation paths\, and kill switches. Governance has to be built into the architecture\, not bolted on after.\n\n\n\n\nThe organizations pulling ahead aren’t automating an outdated process. They’re asking what risk identification\, assessment\, and response would look like if designed from scratch around what AI now makes possible. \n\n\n\nIn case you’re unable to catch the live webinar\, please register to receive the recording which you can watch at your convenience. \n\n\n\nGRC 20/20 Presenter . . .\n\n\n\nMichael Rasmussen\n\n\n\nIf you ask my family what I do for a living\, they might say that I “travel the world talking about risk.” And honestly\, that wouldn’t be far from the truth. But the more formal introduction is that I am an analyst\, researcher\, storyteller\, and\, as the industry likes to remind me\, the Father of GRC. More than 23 years ago\, while at Forrester Research\, I coined the acronym GRC and articulated it as a way to integrate governance\, risk management\, and compliance capabilities in strategy\, process\, and technology. \n\n\n\nToday\, through GRC 20/20 Research\, I spend my days studying how organizations around the world navigate complexity and uncertainty. My job is to observe patterns\, identify challenges\, understand how strategy\, process\, and technology intersect\, and help organizations evolve to be more effective\, efficient\, resilient\, and agile. Along the way\, I also founded GRC Report\, a global news and insights platform focused entirely on governance\, risk management\, compliance\, and business integrity news and insights around the world. It has become a place where practitioners\, executives\, policymakers\, and technologists can see the GRC landscape through a global lens.  \n\n\n\nI also host two podcasts — Risk Is Our Business Podcast and Hitchhiker’s Guide to the GRC Technology Galaxy Podcast — because I believe conversation is one of the most powerful tools we have for changing how people think about risk and integrity. These podcasts allow me to explore big ideas with remarkable minds from around the world\, and they keep me grounded in the reality that risk is not merely a function — it is the fabric of every decision and every ambition. In many ways\, I am an explorer of uncertainty. As an industry analyst\, I map and monitor the ever-expanding GRC galaxy — now tracking over 1\,500 solutions and the professional services orbiting them. The universe of GRC is vast\, dynamic\, and constantly in motion\, and I am endlessly fascinated by how organizations chart their course through it. \n\n\n\nWebinar Host . . .\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMetricStream simplifies Governance\, Risk\, and Compliance (GRC) with purpose-built AI-first Risk\, Compliance\, Audit\, CyberGRC\, Third-party Risk\, and Resilience products on a single low-code / no-code GRC cloud platform.

SUMMARY:Risk Appetite Dinner\, LONDON
DESCRIPTION:REQUEST AN EXECUTIVE DINNER INVITATION\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nCould You Produce the Audit Trail? An Evening for Risk Leaders on AI Accountability\n\n\n\nRisk Appetite Executive Dinners are an invitation-only global thought leadership series for senior risk executives responsible for navigating uncertainty\, protecting enterprise value\, and enabling their organisations to take the right risks. \n\n\n\nHosted by Michael Rasmussen\, Founder of GRC 20/20 Research\, analyst at GRC Report\, and host of the Risk Is Our Business and Hitchhiker’s Guide to the GRC Technology Galaxy podcasts\, this invitation-only dinner brings together a carefully curated group of CROs\, CCOs\, and GRC executives for candid\, off-the-record discussion. This is not a vendor pitch\, conference panel\, or marketing event. It is a high-trust forum for peer-level dialogue among executives who will be the ones answering for their organisation’s AI decisions. \n\n\n\nDining Experience\n\n\n\nThe dinner is set at Fogo de Chão Bishopsgate\, in the heart of London. This seated executive dinner is intentionally designed to slow the pace\, encourage open dialogue\, and foster meaningful peer connections. Attendance is strictly limited to ensure depth of discussion and a consistent level of seniority around the table. \n\n\n\nDiscussion focus\n\n\n\nOne question drives the evening: if a regulator asked for the audit trail behind a specific AI decision tomorrow\, could you produce it? \n\n\n\nMost programs can’t\, not from lack of policy\, but because no one owns the full decision path\, the reasoning behind it\, or the pace it moves at. That’s where risk leaders are talking now: named accountability\, decision-level audit trails\, and governance built for AI speed off the record\, away from vendor pitches. \n\n\n\nConversations are held under Chatham House Rule. \n\n\n\nEvent details\n\n\n\n📅 Wednesday\, 9 September 2026 \n\n\n\n🕕 6:30 PM – 9:30 PM \n\n\n\n📍 Fogo de Chão Bishopsgate\, London \n\n\n\nParticipation\n\n\n\nFor those selected\, this Risk Appetite Executive Dinner offers a rare opportunity to step away from surface-level debate and engage deeply with fellow leaders who understand that risk is not something to be avoided\, but something to be governed\, aligned\, and deliberately embraced. \n\n\n\nAttendance is by invitation only to ensure a senior\, peer-level audience and a balanced\, high-value discussion. \n\n\n\nGRC 20/20 Risk Appetite Facilitator . . .\n\n\n\nMichael Rasmussen\n\n\n\nIf you ask my family what I do for a living\, they might say that I “travel the world talking about risk.” And honestly\, that wouldn’t be far from the truth.

SUMMARY:FINNRIMA ERM Day 2026\, HELSINKI
DESCRIPTION:REGISTER\n\n\n\n\n\nVENT TIME:   SEPTEMBER 23\, 2026\, 08:30 A.M. – 6:00 P.M.\n\n\n\nEVENT ADDRESS:   FINLANDIA-TALO\, MANNERHEIMINTIE 13 E\n\n\n\n\nEssentials for Your Path to Excellence\n\n\n\nERM Day 2026\, organized by the Finnish Risk Management Association (FINNRIMA)\, brings together Risk Management professionals for a full day of discussion on the theme “ERM Meets Resilience”. The program explores how organizations can strengthen resilience in an increasingly uncertain operating environment. The sessions will cover digital sovereignty\, the role of boards in resilience\, national security of supply\, human resilience and performance\, and resilience from a CRO perspective. \n\n\n\nSpeakers include recognized professionals from the European Parliament\, international business\, risk management\, governance\, and security of supply. The day will end with a networking cocktail session\, offering a good opportunity to continue the discussion and connect with peers in the risk management community. Join us at Finlandia Hall in Helsinki on 23 September 2026. \n\n\n\nAttending will expand your knowledge\, enhance your network\, and position you as a forward-thinking risk management professional. Register now to stay ahead in the evolving risk management landscape! \n\n\n\nGRC 20/20 Analyst Keynote . . .\n\n\n\nMichael Rasmussen\n\n\n\nIf you ask my family what I do for a living\, they might say that I “travel the world talking about risk.” And honestly\, that wouldn’t be far from the truth. But the more formal introduction is that I am an analyst\, researcher\, storyteller\, and\, as the industry likes to remind me\, the Father of GRC. More than 23 years ago\, while at Forrester Research\, I coined the acronym GRC and articulated it as a way to integrate governance\, risk management\, and compliance capabilities in strategy\, process\, and technology. \n\n\n\nToday\, through GRC 20/20 Research\, I spend my days studying how organizations around the world navigate complexity and uncertainty. My job is to observe patterns\, identify challenges\, understand how strategy\, process\, and technology intersect\, and help organizations evolve to be more effective\, efficient\, resilient\, and agile. Along the way\, I also founded GRC Report\, a global news and insights platform focused entirely on governance\, risk management\, compliance\, and business integrity news and insights around the world. It has become a place where practitioners\, executives\, policymakers\, and technologists can see the GRC landscape through a global lens.  \n\n\n\nI also host two podcasts — Risk Is Our Business Podcast and Hitchhiker’s Guide to the GRC Technology Galaxy Podcast — because I believe conversation is one of the most powerful tools we have for changing how people think about risk and integrity. These podcasts allow me to explore big ideas with remarkable minds from around the world\, and they keep me grounded in the reality that risk is not merely a function — it is the fabric of every decision and every ambition. In many ways\, I am an explorer of uncertainty. As an industry analyst\, I map and monitor the ever-expanding GRC galaxy — now tracking over 1\,500 solutions and the professional services orbiting them. The universe of GRC is vast\, dynamic\, and constantly in motion\, and I am endlessly fascinated by how organizations chart their course through it. \n\n\n\nConference Host . . .\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe Finnish Risk Management Association\, FINNRIMA\, is Finland’s leading professional community for risk management\, bringing together risk and security leaders\, organizations\, educational institutions\, public authorities\, insurers\, brokers\, consultants\, and others committed to advancing the discipline. Established in 1987\, FINNRIMA provides a forum for professional dialogue\, collaboration\, education\, and the exchange of practical insight across Finland’s risk community. With approximately 360 individual and organizational members\, including many of Finland’s largest industrial groups and insurance organizations\, the association works to strengthen professional risk management capabilities\, promote wider understanding of risk throughout society\, support research and education\, and contribute to the development of relevant standards and regulation. FINNRIMA also connects Finland’s risk community to the broader European profession through its membership in the Federation of European Risk Management Associations\, FERMA. \nShare this:\n				Email a link to a friend (Opens in new window)\n				Email\n			\n				Print (Opens in new window)\n				Print\n			\n				Share on LinkedIn (Opens in new window)\n				LinkedIn\n			\n				Share on X (Opens in new window)\n				X\n			\n				Share on Facebook (Opens in new window)\n				Facebook

SUMMARY:#RISK Europe 2026\, LONDON
DESCRIPTION:REGISTER\n\n\n\n\n#RISK Expo Europe 2026\n\n\n\nNovember 10–11\, 2026 | ExCeL London | London\, United Kingdom \n\n\n\n#RISK Expo Europe 2026 is a large\, cross-functional conference and exhibition for professionals working across governance\, risk management\, compliance\, information security\, operational resilience\, internal audit\, financial crime\, privacy\, third-party risk\, and related disciplines. Organized by GRC World Forums and Emerald\, the event brings together senior practitioners\, business leaders\, technology providers\, advisers\, and policymakers to examine how organizations can respond to increasingly interconnected regulatory\, operational\, technological\, and geopolitical risks. \n\n\n\nUnlike events focused on a single professional discipline\, #RISK is designed around the intersections between different areas of GRC and risk. Its agenda recognizes that cybersecurity\, regulatory compliance\, third-party dependencies\, human behavior\, financial crime\, resilience\, and technology governance cannot be managed effectively in isolation. The 2026 conference includes dedicated content stages covering information security\, banking\, financial services and insurance\, and broader GRC topics\, supported by workshops\, breakout discussions\, live demonstrations\, and an extensive exhibition. \n\n\n\nKey areas of discussion are expected to include: \n\n\n\n\nArtificial intelligence governance\, cloud security\, ransomware\, data protection\, and security culture\n\n\n\nOperational resilience\, board-level risk reporting\, financial crime\, fraud\, and regulatory change\n\n\n\nRisk-led governance and the transition beyond checklist-oriented compliance\n\n\n\nThird-party\, supplier\, procurement\, and supply-chain risk\n\n\n\nBusiness continuity\, crisis management\, incident response\, and protective security\n\n\n\nEmerging GRC\, RegTech\, cybersecurity\, privacy\, and risk technology\n\n\n\n\nThe organizers anticipate more than 100 exhibitors and partners\, over 300 speakers\, more than 50 themes\, and at least 10 workshops\, breakout sessions\, and live demonstrations. This combination of educational programming and a substantial technology exhibition allows attendees to move from strategic discussions into practical exploration of the platforms\, services\, and methods available to address specific organizational challenges. \n\n\n\nFor attendees\, #RISK provides opportunities to: \n\n\n\n\nGain insight into emerging risks\, regulations\, technologies\, and professional practices\n\n\n\nHear practical experiences and case studies from risk\, compliance\, audit\, security\, and resilience leaders\n\n\n\nCompare approaches with peers from regulated and risk-intensive industries\n\n\n\nExplore GRC\, RegTech\, security\, privacy\, and risk-management technologies\n\n\n\nParticipate in workshops\, panels\, demonstrations\, and cross-functional discussions\n\n\n\nBuild relationships with practitioners\, advisers\, technology providers\, and other members of the European GRC community\n\n\n\n\nThe event is particularly relevant for organizations seeking to break down functional silos and develop a more coordinated approach to governance\, risk management\, compliance\, security\, and resilience. Attendees can use the two-day program to evaluate new ideas\, identify potential technology and service partners\, strengthen professional networks\, and return to their organizations with practical approaches for improving decision-making and navigating a rapidly changing risk environment.  \n\n\n\nGRC 20/20 Attendee & Presenter . . .\n\n\n\nMichael Rasmussen\n\n\n\nIf you ask my family what I do for a living\, they might say that I “travel the world talking about risk.” And honestly\, that wouldn’t be far from the truth. But the more formal introduction is that I am an analyst\, researcher\, storyteller\, and\, as the industry likes to remind me\, the Father of GRC. More than 23 years ago\, while at Forrester Research\, I coined the acronym GRC and articulated it as a way to integrate governance\, risk management\, and compliance capabilities in strategy\, process\, and technology. \n\n\n\nToday\, through GRC 20/20 Research\, I spend my days studying how organizations around the world navigate complexity and uncertainty. My job is to observe patterns\, identify challenges\, understand how strategy\, process\, and technology intersect\, and help organizations evolve to be more effective\, efficient\, resilient\, and agile. Along the way\, I also founded GRC Report\, a global news and insights platform focused entirely on governance\, risk management\, compliance\, and business integrity news and insights around the world. It has become a place where practitioners\, executives\, policymakers\, and technologists can see the GRC landscape through a global lens.  \n\n\n\nI also host two podcasts — Risk Is Our Business Podcast and Hitchhiker’s Guide to the GRC Technology Galaxy Podcast — because I believe conversation is one of the most powerful tools we have for changing how people think about risk and integrity. These podcasts allow me to explore big ideas with remarkable minds from around the world\, and they keep me grounded in the reality that risk is not merely a function — it is the fabric of every decision and every ambition. In many ways\, I am an explorer of uncertainty. As an industry analyst\, I map and monitor the ever-expanding GRC galaxy — now tracking over 1\,500 solutions and the professional services orbiting them. The universe of GRC is vast\, dynamic\, and constantly in motion\, and I am endlessly fascinated by how organizations chart their course through it. \n\n\n\nConference Host . . .\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n#RISK\, powered by GRC World Forums & Emerald is a premier collection of global events dedicated to exploring the multifaceted world of risk. From cybersecurity and data privacy to financial crime\, regulatory compliance\, and geopolitical uncertainties\, #RISK provides a vital platform for professionals across industries to connect\, learn\, and build resilience in an increasingly complex and interconnected world. \nShare this:\n				Email a link to a friend (Opens in new window)\n				Email\n			\n				Print (Opens in new window)\n				Print\n			\n				Share on LinkedIn (Opens in new window)\n				LinkedIn\n			\n				Share on X (Opens in new window)\n				X\n			\n				Share on Facebook (Opens in new window)\n				Facebook

SUMMARY:GRC 7.0: Orchestrating Resilience with Digital Twins and Agentic AI
DESCRIPTION:REGISTER\n\n\n\n\nThe future of enterprise risk management is intelligent\, connected\, and adaptive. This session introduces GRC 7.0 – GRC Orchestrate\, the next evolution of governance\, risk\, and compliance. We will explore how Digital Twins of the enterprise—virtual models of organizational processes\, systems\, and third-party ecosystems—can simulate risk scenarios\, identify vulnerabilities\, and support resilient planning. Combined with Agentic AI\, which can act autonomously to gather intelligence\, flag risks\, and recommend actions\, organizations can move beyond static workflows to dynamic orchestration of risk and resilience. This session provides a vision of how emerging technologies will redefine enterprise risk in practice\, transforming the risk function into a command center for resilience and performance. \n\n\n\nYou will: \n\n\n\n\nEnvision and plan for the transformation of the risk function into an intelligent command center that leverages emerging technologies to orchestrate resilience and performance across the enterprise in real-time.\n\n\n\nUnderstand the GRC 7.0 framework and how Digital Twins of the enterprise enable advanced risk simulation\, vulnerability identification\, and resilient planning by creating dynamic virtual models of organizational processes\, systems\, and ecosystems.\n\n\n\nEvaluate the role of Agentic AI in autonomous risk management\, including how AI agents can independently gather intelligence\, flag emerging risks\, and recommend actions to move organizations from static workflows to dynamic risk orchestration.\n\n\n\n\nIn case you’re unable to catch the live webinar\, please register to receive the recording which you can watch at your convenience. \n\n\n\nGRC 20/20 Presenter . . .\n\n\n\nMichael Rasmussen\n\n\n\nMichael Rasmussen is an internationally recognized authority\, thought leader\, and pioneer in the disciplines of governance\, risk management\, and compliance (GRC).
