The seminar explores the increasing complexity of the fire safety sector, highlighting the fragmented landscape of organisations, regulations, and stakeholders that emerged particularly after events like the Grenfell Tower fire.
Fire Sector Confederation chair Steve McGuirk advocates for a collaborative approach to navigating this complexity, proposing the creation of a multi-stakeholder congress, special interest networks, and leveraging technologies like AI to help bring coherence and innovation to fire safety policy and practice.
This session was recored at the Institute of Fire Safety Managers Technical Day, which was part of Fire Safety Matters Live in Coventry on 5 June 2025.
