Christine was invited to be a keynote speeker at HSBC’s annual dinner. 

Dear Christine,

Where do I start on a truly exceptional after dinner presentation to our gathering in Birmingham last night. To say you made everyone think across a number of topics over and above your comments on cyber risk is a near understatement. You readily went into a number of topics surrounding how you feel that the food chain and its customers need to work more closely on in the future. For your time and insight a genuine and well meant thank you. You lived up to all my high expectations.

Many thanks again, Allan (Head of Agrifoods, HSBC)
