The operational Continuity of Business whether in the private or public sector is subjected to unprecedented challenges in this age of International Interdependence, with potentially devastating ramifications on sustainability and profitability.
Risk management and resilience have always been integral to the operational frameworks of organisations, however, in a rapidly changing world with increasing threats, the concept of Business Continuity Management has become more and more important for organisations, as they seek to improve their resilience and maintain their critical functions.
This high level international symposium will provide a platform to discuss the latest challenges and developments in the field of business continuity and risk management and to share international best practice.
The symposium programme will cover areas including the role and effectiveness of Business Continuity Management Plans (BCMP), and how these can be improved and adjusted to reflect the evolving risks that are faced; how to minimize exposure during external disruptive events; and how new technologies will fall into the business continuity planning equation.
It will look at a range of cutting-edge case studies from across the globe to help understand the risks being faced and to learn from leading experts and practitioners.
