After a packed first day at #RISK Europe at ExCeL London, it’s time to step away from the buzz of the exhibition hall and join CoreStream GRC for an evening of real conversation, real connection, and real value.

We’re hosting an exclusive Community Dinner for Governance, Risk & Compliance leaders at the iconic Hawksmoor Wood Wharf, a complimentary three-course experience designed to challenge conventional thinking, deepen relationships, and explore what’s next for GRC.


Why attend a CoreStream GRC community dinner?

Let’s be honest, some of the most meaningful insights don’t happen in conference sessions. They happen over dinner, with a glass of wine, and a table full of peers who get it.

This dinner is for those who want to:

  • Go beyond the PowerPoint and dig into the real takeaways from #RISK Europe.
  • Challenge the status quo in GRC and explore new approaches with industry leaders.
  • Connect with a curated group of professionals who are shaping the future of governance, risk, and compliance.

A previous attendee put it best:

“Thank you again for last night. Great food and drink – and I had some very engaging conversations with other professionals in the field. Very much appreciated.”

– Group Head of Risk, Internal Controls, LSE listed company
