Line up for BIAFD Spring Meeting

The BIAFD Spring General Meeting will take place on Thursday 20th April 2023, at the Forest of Arden Hotel & Country Club, Meriden.

We are very pleased to welcome two excellent keynote speakers for the afternoon general session.

Catherine Guy, from Comply Direct  will present on Plastic Packaging Tax, Extended Producer Responsibility, and the general trends in Environmental, Social and Governance. For sixteen years Comply Direct has specialised in supporting UK businesses in meeting sustainability obligations and aspirations, and is one of several DEFRA registered providers for PPT and EPR compliance.

Chris Blunt, of Blunt Security will present a Board Level 101 on Cybersecurity. With more than 20 years in the IT industry, and deep technical knowledge, Chris provides straight talking cyber security advice, relevant to directors, owners and management regardless of business size. Chris is a Licensed Cyber Security Assessor working with IT providers, SMES and large corporations.  He’ll get as technical as you want but the aim of this session is to clearly identify management priorities to enhance protection from cyber crime.

All members of the BIAFD are eligible to attend these sessions, as well as joining industry colleagues for lunch and also dinner, if they wish.
