Event Details

In a volatile world, overloaded by data and compounded by complexity and uncertainty, important decisions are often being made without the right information or insight. However, seeking the right advice to turn risk into resilience and find security in new opportunities is helping companies make better decisions.

This year for the 20th annual Aon Insights Series Pacific. The event at Melbourne’s Ritz-Carlton, will map out the core risk and people issues impacting organisations and the critical decisions that leaders and their teams grapple with day-to-day.

Join us, together global subject matter experts, industry thought leaders and senior decision makers, for the Aon Insights Series Pacific which aims to give you the clarity and confidence to make better decisions.

15 October: 8:40am - 5:15pm followed by networking drinks (8:00am registration)
16 October: 9:00am - 2:00pm (8:15am registration)
