Foreword Leigh Thomas is an ambitious and passionate executive with a desire for achieving the ideal. With experience in numerous industries and working within C-level communities across the globe in Oil & Gas, Mining, Power & Enterprise IT, across multiple divisions across the business. Following his experience with his previous employer and working with leading CIOs & CISO’s across EMEA, his understanding of B2B events grew. With his passion for achieving the ideal scenario a plan was founded to strip back what the industry is about. This is where the core values of the Alliance Chapter were born along with Alliance Media Group. Alliance - ‘A union formed for mutual benefit’. Whilst understanding that every business will need to drive commercials to become sustainable in the modern world. Leigh believed that commercials must not be the driver but, a solution to a ‘why’. The Event Managed Services industry is spiralling into a dark tunnel of an industry where money is the leader and not the value of time. The industry was born off the back of ‘Everybody wants to learn’ and Leigh Thomas has created the Alliances to ensure that the end user driven meets, are purely focused around the educational needs of everyone involved and around their business objectives. Zoning in on the best practices in overcoming the common business objectives that motivate activity within each of the end user firms and not simply global trends and themes to generate revenue. 2020 and the Digital environment has been forced for a remote workforce with limited human interaction due to the Coronavirus pandemic since March 2020. From this, our community representative have been relied upon even more for business enablement. From the event space environment, even more events companies have found an overnight solution of plaguing diaries with event upon event, with revenue driven activities. As an organisation, we will shy away from this and only invite the community to engage when justified. We will also, not be looking for time commitments of more than an hour or two as we understand that life is continued, in the remote style of operating business currently.

Focused Session Morey Haber CTO & CISO BeyondTrust Beyond Trust Session Leaders: Morey Haber – CTO & CISO – BeyondTrust Session Title: Complete Endpoint Security: Five Critical Steps Session Overview and Purpose: 70% of successful breaches started at the endpoint in 2019. Since then, a global pandemic has caused a large-scale shift to remote work – a perfect storm for privilege abuse. As a result, malware has increased by 30,000% in 2020. This is especially concerning when many companies still rely on antivirus software (AV) or Endpoint Detection and Response solutions (EDR) alone to secure endpoints. In this visionary session, we will be highlighting which two overlooked steps can mitigate the 60% of modern threats that are missed by AV, and why the need for organizations to move from a reactive to a preventative approach is more important than ever. Focus topics include: An overview of endpoint security and why it is crucial for your organization Traditional challenges and existing problems with endpoint security The five critical steps to achieving complete endpoint security //9
