The Institute of Strategic Risk Management is delighted to announce that it has agreed a strategic collaboration with Resilience First, a business campaigning group with over 200 members, and their mission is to ‘build and strengthen business resilience so that our urban communities, in the UK and beyond, become more agile and adaptable to overcome future challenges’. 

Robert Hall MBCI MSyI, Resilience First’s Director of Security & Resilience Network said “This is a clear opportunity to combine forces between two leading organisations in order to support each other’s activities and to look for opportunities for collaboration in areas where our respective skills, interests and membership profiles create added value and synergy.” 

Dr David Rubens D.SyRM, CSyP, F.ISRM, ISRM Executive Director, said “I have been crossing paths with Robert Hall for close to twenty years, and I am delighted that we are able to create a relationship that will have benefits for both of our organisations, but also for the wider global safe city and resilient city networks. London is at the forefront of developing an understanding of what the resilient cities of the future will look like, and we are looking forward to exploring opportunities for future collaboration with an organisation which is itself at the leading edge of that movement.“

Resilience First is a membership organisation with the mission to improve urban resilience for business communities in the UK and beyond.

‘In the 21st Century, building resilience is one of our most urgent social and economic issues because we live in a world defined by disruption.’
