LONDON, UK, December 9, 2024 – Commercial property insurer FM has been recognised at the Insurance Times Awards 2024 with silver in Excellence in Risk Management for its European Risk Prevention Tour.
To engage clients and partners with its world-class research and engineering solutions, FM created a mobile version of its leading research and training facilities.
The FM Risk Prevention Tour is a 15.2-meter-long expandable truck with a range of interactive experiences, introducing FM’s engineering solutions. It includes a flood table, which challenges participants to implement water damage mitigation measures; a demonstration of how seismic gas shutoff valves can prevent large releases of flammable gas in the event of an earthquake; and sprinklers discharging in a live fire protection simulation.
“Since the FM Risk Prevention Tour was launched at AIRMIC conference in 2023, it has been turning heads and expanding minds,” said Bill Bradshaw, operations senior vice president, London operations manager at FM. “This unique, illustrative experience uses real-world cases, making it rewarding for clients, prospects, brokers and visitors alike, bringing to life the risks and opportunities facing their businesses and encouraging them to be more resilient.”
