Join Nicholas Dungan for an insightful webinar exploring how business continuity fits within the broader framework of 360° resilience, an increasingly urgent priority for governments across the UK and Europe as they enhance whole-of-society preparedness and security.

Nicholas will examine the latest approaches taken by the European Union and NATO, highlighting key policy instruments and strategic priorities, and comparing these with current UK measures. Drawing on these insights, he will outline a practical set of actions that organisations can implement immediately to strengthen their resilience, readiness, and operational continuity.

The session will be particularly relevant for leaders and practitioners within industrial companies, financial and professional services firms, and critical infrastructure providers seeking to enhance organisational resilience while contributing to broader societal preparedness.

The presentation will last approximately 30 minutes, followed by an extended Q&A session, providing participants with the opportunity to engage directly with Nicholas and discuss the implications for their organisations.

All attendees and BCI members will receive a copy of the presentation slides after the webinar. The slide deck may be freely used and shared within their organisations and professional networks.
