IPSA CEO chosen for judging panel at major retail awards

IPSA CEO Satia Rai will be one of the four select judges at this year's Heroes of Retail Risk Awards.

The Heroes of Retail Risk Awards take place on 18th June 2026, following Retail Risk – London, at the Novotel Hammersmith West, London. Taking its cue from The Daily Mail Pride of Britain Awards, this new event shines a spotlight on selfless actions, bravery and acts of kindness in our industry.

The security guard who bravely saves the day. The cashier who recognises a victim of abuse and intervenes. The team of fund raisers working towards a charitable goal. These are the sorts of unsung heroes that The Heroes of Retail Risk Awards recognises.

"In a sector that employs over 2.8 million people across the UK, Heroes of Retail Risk Awards matters more than ever. We recognise those who go above and beyond, shining a spotlight on selfless actions, bravery, and acts of kindness in our industry.

"I am proud to be a judge for such prestigious awards."
