The Hazardex Call for Speakers has now closed, however you can still play your part in the hazardous area industry's leading event by contacting us today! If you are still interested in sharing your knowledge & insights with the wider process safety community, then get in touch with the Hazardex team as soon as possible and you could be included on our speaker reserve list or we may have other speaking opportunities available. Email us now!

For almost three decades, Hazardex Live has been the ideal platform for sharing key industry information and topical discussion on process safety-related topics. The events bring together those with hazardous area and wider safety responsibilities to review best practice and the latest research in areas key to managing process safety effectively.

We are welcoming submissions from contributors with experience and knowledge of the process safety and high hazard sectors. Submissions could be in the form of research, industry developments, lessons learnt from near-misses, investigation findings, good practice for industry, or case studies, to name just a few of the formats we are looking for.

Email alistair.hookway@imlgroup.co.uk to enquire about the speaker reserve list and other opportunities!

There is no charge to submit or present, although we ONLY SEEK NON-COMMERCIAL PRESENTATIONS which aim to inform/educate, are of practical use, are technically helpful, or are thought leadership/opinion based.
