The Future Developments in Terrorism Conference was a terrorism policy conference held on 3-5 March 1999 at University College Cork in Ireland and attended by counter terrorist practitioners, risk analysts and academics. The conference was funded by University College Cork and the European Research Office of the United States Army (Contract No. N68171-99-M-5613). It was organised by Max Taylor and John Horgan with the advise and support of Paul Wilkinson and David Rapoport. [1]

The former Assistant Commissioner of the Metropolitan Police David Veness joined at around the same time, and Louise Richardson, then at Harvard, was appointed Principal of the University of St. Andrews in 2008.
