The Future Resilience Forum (FRF) is an international security conference launched in October 2023 in London by its founder Fiona Hill. The forum analyses the key factors shaping the emerging global order by gathering insights from leaders across business, politics, government, academia, and investment sectors.
FRF focuses on creating long-term plans to strengthen democratic systems, reduce risks, and take advantage of new opportunities in a fast-changing world. It aims to build international connections and partnerships to adapt to global changes, helping improve security and understand the new world order.
