The meeting turnout was good. There were good discussions mainly about Risk mitigation which is important although Risk understanding is still a little understated. The awareness this forum brings definitely will bridge this gap since the industry gets to hear from vendors, service providers who has the speciality in providing compliance through their products and services.
