The Experience Day is arranged for a closed circle of participants in order to allow for an open exchange between users of the BKMS® System on Compliance and Whistleblowing related topics. It was our clients who initiated the concept of this event as they asked for an experience platform supporting their daily work in Compliance/Legal/Revision Departments.

Due to its success, the BKMS® Experience Day might be taking place on an annual basis.
