CCRO Summit a Big Success

by Bob Anderson

The CCRO Risk Networking Summit for 2012, held Sep 26 - 28 at the CCRO Woodlands, Texas office, was by any measure a successful event for everyone involved.  The CCRO board of directors wants all that attended to know that the CCRO greatly appreciates your active involvement in the the three days of discussion, debate, and planning for new CCRO initiatives.

The Summit attendees exceeded 100, filling our participant seats in the two-level rings and the overflow seats as well.  We were particularly happy to see such variety in the perspectives of the participants, coming from companies across the energy industry and leaders in roles spanning risk and compliance.
