Whitepaper: Enhancing security, resilience and efficiency across a range of industries

Colonel Tim Collins, Kate Adie and James Cracknell to Headline FIREX International 2016

Following months of research, we are pleased to unveil a programme of more than 100 speakers at FIREX International 2016.

Drawing on the recommendations of IFSEC Global readers and advisory boards this year’s lineup includes three truly inspirational speakers:

Colonel Tim Collins OBE attracted attention on both sides of the Atlantic for his rousing speech to the troops before going into battle in Iraq. His autobiography, Rules of Engagement, subsequently went straight into the bestseller lists. He is now CEO of a security company and an inspiring speaker about the challenges leaders face. Tim Collins will be speaking on 21 June, 11.30am – 12.30pm

Kate Adie OBE became a household name as BBC Chief News Reporter, reporting from the frontline during the first Gulf War, the protests in Beijing’s Tiananmen Square, the demise of the Soviet Union and NATO’s campaign in Kosovo. Kate Adie will be speaking on 22 June, 11.30am – 12.30am.

James Cracknell OBE is one of Britain’s greatest ever oarsmen. After victory alongside Redgrave and Pinsent in the coxless fours in Sydney, he went on to achieve another Olympic gold in Athens, crossed the Atlantic with Ben Fogle and has battled serious neurological injuries following a cycling accident in 2010. James Cracknell will be speaking on 23 June, 11.30am – 12.30pm.
