SkyCenter One, 5411 SkyCenter Dr., Tampa, FL 33607
Monday, October 19, 2026 5:30 PM - 8:00 PM Eastern Standard Time

Today’s Risk Manager plays a critical role well beyond purchasing insurance and managing claims.  From cyber and contractual exposures to catastrophic events, operational disruptions and emerging risks, effective risk management increasingly intersects with Finance, Operations and executive decision-making.

Join FEI Tampa Bay for a candid conversation with senior risk leaders from three distinctly different industries.  Our panel will explore the “good, bad and ugly” of risk management - what organizations know, what they prepare for, and the risks they may not recognize until something happens.

Moderator:
Brian Hanrahan | SVP | USI Insurance Services

Panelists:
Chris Reyes | Senior Manager, Risk and Insurance - Enterprise Risk Management and Safety | Tampa International Airport
Brian Dieser | Corporate Insurance Risk Manager | MarineMax
Walker Hackney | Risk Manager | AVI-SPL
