NovemberOrganizational ResilienceForum

About the eventThe Organizational Resilience Forum will examine how governments and businesses from the region are able to effectively prepare to handle unexpected events, even to the point where they could use these to seize the opportunitiesthey might present. With a growing sense that business environment is becoming less predictable, stakeholders are de-manding that companies manage risks proactively.

Having elaborate contingency plans in place to protect critical infrastructure, information and resources is no longer optional or nice to have, but increasingly key to the survival of governments and businesses alike and their ability to continue operating in the future.
