CONTENTS


The GRC2015 conference program will again feature inspirational leaders exploring topics across the change management spectrum at an organisational and individual level. The feature of our conference is upon the focus of practical insights from senior practitioners in governance, risk and compliance. Having developed a strong reputation for excellent value and quality gained over three consecutive years of strong programming and competitive pass rates under $2000, GRC2015 is likely to attract 350 delegates from a broad range of business sectors both from Australia and overseas.

Traditionally, the conference has been the focal gathering point for GRCI members who take the opportunity for networking and professional development seriously and as always, the conference will provide ample opportunity for commercial partners to consolidate the GRC marketplace. Sponsor packages can be designed to meet your corporate objectives in consultation and our team will work with you to ensure the features and benefits we offer compliment your sales and marketing objectives. Exhibition and sponsorship of our conference will help you:

• Strengthen, enhance and reinforce your brand in a forum that encourages interaction

• Initiate, build and develop business relationships

• Engage with clients in a relaxed atmosphere

• Ensure direct impact and recognition by providing opportunities for pre and post Conference marketing

• Increase B2B and B2C networking opportunities

• Improve customers’ knowledge of brand, products or services

• Leverage existing key customer relationships and strengthen ties

The GRC Institute is in touch with over 6000 engaged professionals on a regular basis, making the association one of the most effective ways for businesses to market directly to engaged members.

demonstration, sales meeting or catch-up while delegates are in session and your sales team is on site.

HOW THE CLIENT PASS WORKS

• Issue a personal invitation to your prospect or client database to visit you at your stand anytime while the conference is happening (please keep in mind that the ideal times to invite your clients for a sales presentation will be in between morning tea and lunch breaks while the delegates are in conference and the exhibitor area is clear of catering distractions)

• Take RSVPs from your clients and prospects and email their full name, position title, organisation and email address to [email protected] so we can provide a pass for your guests

• Your guest will be able to pick up their pass from the registration desk at the Sydney Hilton Hotel from 8.00am Thursday 30 October and access the exhibitor hall

• To take full advantage of this opportunity, it is recommended that you plan the launch of any communications or invitations to your database from Monday 15 September to give your guests plenty of time to consider their attendance

• Your guest will only be able to access the exhibition hall if they have a valid pass

• Please provide your final list of RSVPs by Friday 17 October

• The Client Pass will only be valid for Thursday 30 and Friday 31 October between the hours of 8.30am and 5.00pm

• Some basic suggested wording for your invitation is below:

Dear Client,

[Company name] will be exhibiting/sponsoring at this year’s GRC2015 Conference attended by over 300 compliance and risk professionals from around the Asia Pacific. During the conference, we will be giving product demonstrations and/or launching our latest product at the event and I would like to extend you a personal invitation to visit us at our booth in the Exhibition Hall on Thursday 30 or Friday 31 October at the Sydney Hilton Hotel between the hours of 8.30am and 5.00pm.

GRCI 19TH ANNUAL AWARDS DINNER SPONSORThe 18th Annual Awards Dinner is a prestigious event where leaders of the GRC Industry are formally

recognised. The evening traditionally features a quality dining experience, superb live entertainment and

event. GRCI will run a separate marketing campaign for the dinner in conjunction with the usual publicity given

around the conference, giving the sponsor double the amount of exposure. We will be encouraging members

who are unable to attend the conference to attend this end-of-year function as a way to network and celebrate

achievements made during 2015. This is an excellent opportunity to really push your brand and be associated

with an incredibly memorable evening which delegates will be talking about as the highlight of 2015!

GRC2014 Sponsorship Prospectus

The Event

The GRC Institute’s annual conference is the risk and compliance industry’s landmark event. As the Asia Pacific’s pre-eminent body for risk and compliance professionals, the GRC Institute (GRCI) is in touch with over 5,000 professionals via email and over 7,000 via direct mail on a regular basis, making the association one of the most effective ways for businesses to market directly to engaged members.

GRC2014 is GRCI’s 18th annual conference and will be held at the Hilton Hotel, Sydney from Wednesday 29 October to Friday 31 October, finishing with the prestigious GRCI Annual Awards Dinner at Luna Park on Friday evening.

The GRC2014 conference program will feature inspirational leaders from around the world exploring topics from winning strategies, humanitarianism and handling crisis to practical insights from senior practitioners in governance, risk and compliance. Held in Sydney NSW where 30 per cent of our membership is located, coupled with a strong program and a much lower full-pass delegate rate, GRC2014 aims to attract 400 delegates. Traditionally, the conference has been the focal gathering point for GRCI members who take the opportunity for networking and professional development seriously and as always, the conference will provide ample opportunity for commercial partners to consolidate and further penetrate the GRC marketplace.

Sponsor packages can be designed to meet your corporate objectives in consultation with the GRC Institute and our team will work with you to ensure the features and benefits we offer compliment your sales and marketing objectives. Sponsorship will help you:

• Strengthen, enhance and reinforce your brand in a forum that encourages interaction

• Initiate, build and develop business relationships

• Engage with clients in a relaxed atmosphere

• Ensure direct impact and recognition by providing opportunities for pre and post Conference marketing

• Increase B2B and B2C networking opportunities

• Improve customers’ knowledge of brand, products or services

• Leverage existing key customer relationships and strengthen ties

1045 Crisis Catastrophe Simulation – Taking Control

A major crisis has struck your company. Do you have the right strategy and team

in place to ‘take control’ quickly and mitigate risks? The decisions and steps you take in effectively managing a crisis can have a detrimental impact on your reputation. Moving quickly to manage expectations of internal and external stakeholders is critical.

KPMG is sponsoring an interactive crisis exercise at the GRC Institute conference this year aimed at helping participants understand the dynamics of crisis management and to respond to the associated challenges.

We will turn the Hilton Hotel into a crisis management center, where you will be invited to work in teams each representing a major Australian company facing a serious crisis, responding to the events in real time. Each group will be asked to provide responses to questions relating to a series of events as they develop over the course of the exercise.

Participants will be challenged on:

• assessing the nature of the crisis and its implications;

• determining who needs to be informed about it and when;

• determining the key messages to be conveyed to a range of stakeholders;

• responding to news media and other pressures; minimising adverse impacts on the company; and

• deciding the key steps needed to resolve the crisis in ways that address the needs of all affected parties.

During the debrief session we will reflect on the exercise, compare responses, draw out key learnings, discuss and debate to establish some best practices. KPMG will provide participants with an effective crisis management framework that participants can take back to their own organisations.
