What is ORIS-CON?
ORIS-CON brings together senior leaders and operational teams across retail, security and loss prevention, alongside law enforcement, crime partnerships and industry partners – not as a traditional conference, but as a fully immersive experience designed to reflect the complexity of real-world challenges.
The programme combines expert-led sessions, panel discussions and industry insight – alongside a live, evolving investigation that runs throughout the event.
Alongside this, ORIS-CON is shaped by a live investigation scenario that unfolds across the event – allowing delegates to analyse intelligence, debate operational responses and apply insight in real time.
Every element is carefully designed to move beyond passive listening, combining insight, collaboration and real-world application.
Designed to
- Challenge industry assumptions around crime and risk
- Strengthen strategic decision-making
- Connect operational insight with executive leadership
- Encourage cross-sector collaboration
Vendor partners are not positioned on the sidelines – they are embedded within the experience, contributing expertise, insight and real-world perspective throughout the event.
This creates a more meaningful environment for both retailers and partners, where solutions are explored in context, not pitched in isolation.
