The RAG Steering Committee

The activities of RAG are overseen by a committee of professionals who represent a range of disciplines and interests. They ensure RAG remains true to its principles, and they safeguard the open collaborative 'RAG spirit' which is the hallmark of all our events.

Our committee members include telco employees, vendors, and expert consultants. Many have extensive experience that includes being employed by telcos and working as a supplier to telcos. This balance helps RAG to bring together all elements of our professional community for mutual benefit.

Committee members hark from a range of disciplines. The breadth of their interests reflects the expansive approach that RAG takes to conference agendas.

The profiles of our committee members can all be found here.

The RAG Spirit

It is hard to describe what makes RAG events so special. More questions, more answers, more openness, more fun... This brochure helps to explain what we do at RAG.

RAG Finances and Sponsors

RAG is a nonprofit that seeks to serve telco professionals whilst minimising the costs to their businesses. Our primary source of finance is the sponsorship we receive from various vendors and consultancies that have a specialist interest in telecoms risk and assurance.

RAG's annual sponsors provide crucial financial stability by making a contribution that covers all of RAG's overheads as well as paying for a range of other activities.

Event sponsors pay to participate in specific conferences, and so provide the funding necessary to ensure others can attend for free.

The popularity of RAG conferences has led to consistent year-on-year rises in the amount of sponsorship contributed by supporting businesses.

The History of RAG

The Risk & Assurance Group was set up in 2003 by UK telcos with the help of Cartesian. Its original name was the Revenue Assurance Group, and it allowed practitioners to share advice about this new discipline. They discussed issues, wrote papers, and lobbied the regulator. Their work shaped RA, as members took jobs with telcos and vendors around the world.

You can learn more about the early days of RAG from this interview of founder Tony Kremer.

RAG changed with its members, encouraging more widespread participation. Remaining at the cutting edge of assurance, we also cover fraud management, enterprise risk management, law enforcement liaison, credit risk and security. Our scope has evolved to reflect the complex remit of a modern risk and assurance professional.
