Nigel is a fantastic speaker who is highly knowledgeable on the topic of cyber-security. Combining his extensive knowledge with his passionate & endearing personality, he was able to engage effectively with the audience using real life, recent scenarios, to bring cyber security within business to life.

Emerging Cyber Threats Conference - June 2017
Nigel Phair was a dynamic, engaging speaker that we felt lucky to have invited to present at our 15th Biennial Aon Benfield Hazards Conference in September 2017 held on the Gold Cost, Queensland. His presentation (“Cyber Re-Imagined”) was rated by our audience members as one of the top presentations over the two day conference. The material which tackled a complex fast evolving sphere of cyber risk was delivered in a clear and engaging manner and resonated with our audience which included an eclectic industry mix from senior insurance analysts through to major company CEO’s. He managed to deliver a diverse array of ideas all accompanied with his own well thought-out opinions in a well-structured professional style. We would happily invite Nigel to present at any future events of ours.
