During the last week of September 2024, SRK held its bi-annual global leadership meetings in Cardiff, United Kingdom. The week included a series of technical and strategic workshops and ended with a gala event celebrating the 50th anniversary of the company. Over 200 science, engineering, and business services professionals attended.
These meetings and workshops are organized with a focus on energizing SRK’s discovery-driven culture,” said Tim McGurk, group CEO of SRK Global. “They are a key opportunity for our professionals to share knowledge and insights across the company.”
The technical workshops covered groundwater, environment, exploration, and innovation, while other forums discussed sustainability, marketing, health-and-safety, and our people strategy.
Reflecting on the week, Global Group Chair Alejo Sfriso observed, “What is unique about SRK is we are first and foremost a practice, meaning we are a group of people working together at SRK and for our clients. Our efforts this week remind us of our commitment to being a highly empowered, collaborative group as we work to meet our clients’ evolving needs.”
Gala attendees were honored by the presence of Hendrik Kirsten—the K in SRK—alongside family members representing late founders Oskar Steffen and Andrew Robertson, invited in heartfelt recognition of the legacy the three helped create. Other special guests, who have also been key in the development of SRK, were present and recognized at the gala.
We invite you to explore the highlights from our 50th anniversary celebration below and on the dedicated SRK50 page.
