On Nov. 9-10, 2023, Baker Tilly and the North Carolina State University (NC State) Enterprise Risk Management (ERM) Initiative co-convened our eighth annual risk management roundtable with attendees representing more than 25 higher education institutions.
This higher education ERM workshop serves as a forum for collaborative discussions, insights and shared experiences in navigating complex and evolving risk landscapes within academic institutions.
