Welcome to RIMScast. Your host is Justin Smulison, Business Content Manager at RIMS, the Risk and Insurance Management Society.

 

This week Justin Smulison is joined once again by return guest Duncan Wardle to conclude their two-part conversation on taking risks, innovating, and RIMS Live 2021!

 

As Head of Innovation and Creativity at Disney, Duncan led the team that helped Imagineering, Lucasfilm, Marvel, Pixar, and Disney Parks to innovate, creating magical new storylines and experiences for consumers around the globe.

Justin is also joined by Stuart Ruff-Lyon, RIMS VP of Events and Exhibitions, to talk about how RIMS 2021 will stand out among previous RIMS Live events, the benefits of going virtual, and what RIMS members can look forward to!
