This conference - the 3rd annual event - will take place in London from 22nd -23rd May 2012 (Holiday Inn Kensington Forum).

The conference aims to update delegates on the current hotspots, both those publicized and lesser known and to discuss how the threat of kidnapping and hijack is evolving in those areas where employees could be most at risk. The conference will identify and assess those criminal gangs and terrorist groups who are operating in each of the hot spots and to demonstrate how effective crisis management strategies and risk assessment can be used to mitigate the effects of these events.

Topics to be covered:

  • Where we are now - new hotspots and existing threats
