Ep. 005 - Insurance & Security Risk Management with Chris Wilson and Scott Hill

Protecting your staff, BOD, volunteers and attendees, as well as your physical and intellectual property is the most important component for any festival organization. It can be complicated, expensive and dangerous if the risks involved in event planning and production are not thoughtfully considered and strategically mitigated or prevented. On this episode we are joined by Scott Hill and Chris Wilson who will present on issues related to security risk management and insurance planning and purchasing. This information will support festivals producers with the knowledge required to make informed decisions about protecting their people and safeguarding their assets.
