As well as a trophy and the kudos that came with being named a Rising Star, the winners of SHP’s 2021 Rising Stars Awards will be invited to an exclusive face-to-face Leadership networking event, set to take place during Safety & Health Expo, at London’s Excel, on Wednesday 18 May 2022.
This will be hosted by Karl Simons OBE, Executive Director for Health, Safety & Wellbeing at FYLD, the Artificial Intelligence (AI) digital solution that is revolutionising the way frontline field force operatives identify and control risk, who will welcome some of the biggest names on the health & safety circuit. Leaders from some of the UKs largest employers will be invited to an exclusive gathering, aimed at creating a connection that presents opportunity for introduction and discussion about the latest topics, challenges, and future endeavours of the profession.
